In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Place the flank steak in a shallow dish or zip-top bag and pour the marinade over it. Ensure the steak is evenly coated and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 hours for enhanced flavor.
Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat.
Remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels. Discard any leftover marinade.
Cook the steak on the grill for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness (125°F for rare, 135°F for medium-rare, or 145°F for medium, measured with a meat thermometer).
Allow the steak to rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
Warm the whole grain flatbreads in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
Spread about 2 tablespoons of hummus over each flatbread.
Top the hummus with sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese (if using).
Layer the thinly sliced steak over the vegetables and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
Roll the flatbreads tightly into wraps and secure with toothpicks if necessary. Serve immediately and enjoy!
