Ingredients Needed
- 4 white fish fillets (cod, haddock, or tilapia)
- 4 large whole wheat or flour tortillas
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded lettuce
- 1 ripe tomato, sliced
- Optional: chopped fresh herbs (cilantro, parsley)
Preparation Steps
Start by preparing the yogurt sauce. In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside to allow flavors to meld.
Next, season the fish fillets with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of paprika. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the fish for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until cooked through and flaky.
While the fish is cooking, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft.
Once the fish is ready, assemble the wraps. Spread a generous spoonful of yogurt sauce on each tortilla. Place a fish fillet on top, then add shredded lettuce, tomato slices, and herbs if desired.
Roll up the tortillas tightly to enclose the filling. Slice in half if preferred and serve immediately.

- For extra flavor, add sliced cucumbers or pickles.
- Use grilled fish for a smoky taste.
- Try different herbs like dill or basil for variation.
- Serve with a side of fresh fruit or a light salad.
