If you're after a simple but tasty lunch, this chicken tikka wrap is one to add to your list.

The chicken is marinated in yoghurt and tikka paste so it stays lovely and juicy, then wrapped up with spinach, diced cucumber, red onion, tomato, and a creamy mango chutney yoghurt that brings it all together.

🥘 Ingredients You Will Need & Notes

Here's a quick photo showing you everything you'll need to make these chicken tikka wraps. I've also added a few notes to highlight any extra info or tips for certain ingredients. To find out how to make them allergy-friendly, simply scroll down to the next section.

✋ Double check all packaging for allergens ✋

• Chicken: - I've just chopped chicken breast into bite-sized chunks, but chopped chicken thighs will also work well.
• Natural Yoghurt: This is used in the marinade to keep the chicken juicy & also to make the yoghurt dressing. You can also use Greek yoghurt like I have in this buffalo chicken wrap.
• Tikka Paste: Tikka paste is mild, so this is a great recipe for the kids. Add some chilli flakes to the paste if you want to spice things up a little.
• Tomato, Cucumber & Red Onion: Dice these all into small squares and mix together before adding to the wrap.
• Mango chutney: This is mixed with a little yoghurt to make the dressing. You can use mild or spicy mango chutney.

✏️ How to Make Chicken Tikka Wraps

⬇️ Here you will find an overview of how to make the recipe. For full information on ingredients and quantities please see the recipe card at the bottom of the page ⬇️

Step 1:
Chop the chicken into bite-sized chunks and place it into a mixing bowl. Add the yoghurt and tikka paste, give it a good stir so everything's coated, and if you've got time, leave it to marinate - 30 minutes is great, or even overnight if you can. (PHOTO 1)

Step 2:
Cook the chicken in the air fryer at 200˚C for 7-9 minutes, giving it a shake halfway through. Or stick it under the grill for 5-7 minutes on each side. Just make sure it's cooked through and starting to catch a bit of colour. (PHOTO 2)

Step 3:
While the chicken's cooking, mix together a spoonful of mango chutney with a tablespoon of natural yoghurt - that's your dressing sorted. Then dice up your tomato, red onion and cucumber into small chunks. (PHOTOS 3 & 4)

Step 4:
Lay your wraps out and spread a bit of the mango chutney yoghurt over the base. Add a handful of spinach, then pile on the chopped veg and the cooked chicken. (PHOTOS 5, 6 & 7)

Step 5:
Drizzle over the rest of the mango chutney yoghurt. (PHOTO 8)

Step 6:
Fold the sides of the wrap in, then roll it up tightly from the bottom - kind of like wrapping a present - so nothing falls out. Slice in half and tuck in! (PHOTOS 9-12)
