Easy Tandoori Chicken Wraps Everyone Will Love! π
Okay, my food lovers β on today's written episode of Family Flavours, we're taking you on a mouth-watering journey to our South-Asian roots with this irresistible tandoori chicken wrap recipe. π―β¨
Here's what you'll need:
- 500g of sizzling chicken strips
- Crisp wraps (as many as you can eat!)
- Freshly shredded lettuce for that crunch
- Creamy mayonnaise (and any other condiment you adore)
- Rice (because why not? Make it a hearty meal)
For that oh-so-delicious marinade:
- 2 tbsp Greek yoghurt
- A sprinkle of these fab spices: 1 tsp each of chilli powder, cumin, coriander, tandoori masala, garam masala, and salt.
- A splash of tangy lemon juice
- 2 tsp rich tomato puree
- 1 tsp ginger and garlic paste
Here's the method:
πΏWash the chicken: First things first, give those chicken strips a good rinse and pat them till they're dry (this is the key to tender chicken btw!)
π₯£ Now, letβs create that marinade: Toss in your yoghurt, all those aromatic spices, the tomato puree, lemon juice, and that fragrant ginger and garlic paste. Let the flavours mingle!
π Dip those chicken strips into the marinade: Ensuring they're generously coated. Let them chill and soak up those flavours for at least 30 minutes. Patience, my friend!
π₯ Heat up your pan with a drizzle of oil: Add those marinated chicken strips - but hey, no overcrowding! (Perhaps in two turns if needed). Aim for that perfect sear, about 7-8 minutes each side until they're gorgeously charred.
π― It's assembly time: Lay out your wrap, layer those flavour-packed chicken strips, add some lettuce and your chosen condiments (we went with mayonnaise and a zesty hot sauce!).
Want to level up? Pile on some rice and go burrito-style!
π Fold up the bottom of the wrap and roll it snugly. Itβs like giving your meal a cozy blanket.
π₯ A little toasting action on the grill to get it all crispy and golden. And there you have it!
Dive in, share with family, and watch those wraps disappear in no time! Enjoy your meal, and keep those family flavours alive! ππ½οΈ
