Wash and prepare vegetables. Rinse mixed salad greens and spin dry or pat with paper towel. Dice 1/2 tomato into small wedges or 1/4-inch dice. Slice 1/4 cucumber into thin rounds or matchsticks. Thinly slice enough red onion to yield about 1 tablespoon. Combine prepared veggies in a small bowl and set aside.
Protein

If you already have cooked grilled chicken, slice it thinly into strips totaling about 120 g (4 oz). If cooking from raw: season one 4–5 oz chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper, heat a skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tsp oil, cook 4–5 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 74°C (165°F). Rest 3 minutes, then thinly slice.
Sauce & Extras

Make the sauce
In a small bowl combine 2 tbsp Greek yogurt, 1 tsp mayonnaise, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper. Whisk until smooth and taste; adjust salt, lemon or mustard to preference. For a thinner sauce, add 1/2 tsp water and whisk.

Assemble extras: have the sauce ready in a spoonable amount and set aside any extra olive oil used for warming.

To fold: fold the bottom edge of the tortilla up over the filling, then fold both sides inward and continue rolling away from you to form a snug wrap. If needed, secure with a toothpick or cut in half on the bias.
