Origin of Green Goddess Chicken and Cucumber Wraps

The Green Goddess dressing was created in the 1920s at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco, inspired by a play of the same name. Over time, this vibrant, herb-forward dressing has become a staple in salads and wraps. The combination of this dressing with grilled chicken and fresh cucumbers makes for a deliciously balanced wrap.

What I Love About This Recipe

Lay out the tortillas on a clean surface.
Spread a generous amount of Green Goddess dressing on each tortilla.
Evenly distribute the shredded chicken over the tortillas.

Sprinkle crumbled feta or goat cheese for extra flavor.
Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll tightly from the bottom up.
