  1/2 cup water
  1/3 cup couscous, preferably whole-wheat
  1 cup chopped fresh parsley
  1/2 cup chopped fresh mint
  1/4 cup lemon juice
  3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  2 teaspoons minced garlic
  1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
  1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  1 pound chicken tenders
  1 medium tomato, chopped
  1 cup chopped cucumber
  4 10-inch spinach or sun-dried tomato wraps or tortillas

Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan.

 Stir in couscous and remove from the heat. 

Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.

 Fluff with a fork. Set aside.

Meanwhile, combine parsley, mint,

 lemon juice, oil, garlic,

 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper in a small bowl.

I also added the tomato cucumber

Toss chicken tenders in a medium bowl 

with 1 tablespoon 

of the parsley mixture and the remaining

 1/8 teaspoon salt

. Place the tenders in a large 

nonstick skillet and cook

 over medium heat until cooked though,

 3 to 5 minutes per side. 

Transfer to a clean cutting board. 

Cut into bite-size pieces when

 cool enough to handle.

Stir the remaining parsley mixture

 into the couscous along 

with tomato and cucumber.

To assemble wraps, spread

 about 3/4 cup of the couscous mixture 

onto each wrap. Divide the chicken 

among the wraps. Roll the wraps 

up like a burrito, tucking

 in the sides to hold the ingredients in.

 Serve cut in half.
