You can do this using WeMos D1-mini + Relay or use SonOff
If you have issues discovering please consider using Sinric Pro smart home skill.

##Using Sonoff##
Sonoff - Thanks @joeman2116 (kakopappa#6)
Use a ftdi 3.3v as the programmer. I tried type as a generic 1meg flash but got reboot problems. So I used the nodemcu.9 choice.
Change the ssid Change password Change device name to (your choice)
Pins I use d6 for the relay and d7 for the led.(optional)
If you want to control more than 1 switch checkout my other project https://github.com/kakopappa/arduino-esp8266-alexa-multiple-wemo-switch
