This spiced chicken salad wrap is perfect as lunch, dinner or made ahead for packed lunches. Full of healthy nutrients, filling veggies and lean chicken.
Ingredients
- 1 wholegrain wrap
- 4 chicken breasts , chopped
Marinate
- 2 tbsp natural yogurt
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp chilli powder
- 1 tsp ginger garlic paste
- 1 handful coriander leaves
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tbsp lime or lemon juice
Salad
- 1 red onion, chopped
- 1 tomato, chopped
- 3 carrots, grated
- 1 green chilli, chopped
- 1 lime, juice of
- 1 tbsp honey
Instructions
- To 2 tbsp natural yogurt, add the marinate ingredients.
- Stir the yogurt mix fully mixed and the yogurt is an even, yellow colour, then add to chicken pieces.
- Stir to fully coat the chicken in the marinate, then cover with cling film and place in the fridge to marinate, for a minimum of 1 hour, but ideally a few hours or overnight.
- Once your chicken is marinating, prepare your salad. Begin by grating the carrot and setting aside on some kitchen roll to dry out slightly.
- Roughly chop the red onion, tomato, chilli, coriander and tomato. Then add this to a bowl with the grated carrot, honey, and the juice of one lime.
- Mix thoroughly, then cover with clingfilm and place in fridge until ready to make your wraps.
- Once the chicken has marinated (an hour, or overnight, depending on how much time you have), heat a large pan and add some oil. I chose to cook with fry-lite today, but use whichever oil you have to hand (vegetable or sunflower).
- Add the chicken to the hot pan, and on a medium heat, cook until the meat is cooked throughout.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside - ready to assemble your wraps.
- Layer the chicken and carrot salad (and any additional sauces you'd like - I added some garlic mayo here) on to a wholegrain wrap and enjoy!
