Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless chicken breast, cooked and shredded

1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup creamy mayonnaise

2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste

8 large lettuce leaves (romaine or butter lettuce preferred)

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup cucumber, diced

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: Begin by cooking the chicken breast. You can either boil it in salted water, bake it at 375°F (190°C) for about 20-25 minutes, or sauté it in olive oil until golden and cooked through. Once cooked, allow the chicken to cool slightly before shredding it into bite-sized pieces using two forks or your hands.

    Make the Creamy Dill Sauce: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and mayonnaise to create a smooth base. Add the finely chopped dill, lemon juice, garlic powder, and onion powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly until you achieve a creamy and well-integrated sauce.

      Combine Chicken with Sauce: Gently fold the shredded chicken into the creamy dill mixture. Ensure that all pieces of chicken are evenly coated with the sauce. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper if desired.

        Prepare the Lettuce Wraps: Rinse the lettuce leaves under cold water to clean them, then gently pat them dry with a paper towel. Arrange the leaves in a single layer on a serving platter, ready to be loaded up with the filling.

          Assemble the Wraps: Take a generous scoop of the creamy dill chicken mixture and spoon it onto the center of each lettuce leaf. Top with halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and finely chopped red onion for a delightful crunch and freshness.

            Serve and Enjoy: You may choose to roll or fold the lettuce wraps for easy eating, or arrange them neatly on a platter for guests to build their own wraps. Serve immediate to enjoy the fresh and vibrant flavors!
