Calories: 565kcal
Equipment
- Air Fryer optional
Ingredients
- 2 medium tortilla wraps
- 2 medium chicken breasts
- 1 medium egg beaten
- 110 g (4oz) cornflakes crushed
- 40 g (1.4oz) plain flour
- 4 tablespoon katsu curry sauce
- 6 slices cucumber
- 2 handfuls iceberg lettuce shredded
Instructions
- Crush cornflakes in a plastic food bag using a rolling pin until fine with a few chunky bits.
- Place chicken breast in a separate bag and gently flatten with a rolling pin.
- Set up 3 bowls: one with flour, one with beaten egg, and the other with crushed cornflakes.
- Coat the chicken breasts in flour, dip in egg, then press into cornflakes until fully coated.
- Spray with oil & cook in air fryer at 200˚C for 12–14 mins (flip halfway) or bake at 200˚C for 20 mins until golden and cooked through.
- Warm the katsu sauce in a saucepan on the hob or in the microwave. Slice the lettuce & cucumber.
- Slice the cooked chicken, then assemble wrap. Spread some of the katsu sauce over the wrap, then top with lettuce, cucumber, the sliced chicken and the rest of the sauce.
- Fold sides in, roll tightly, slice in half and serve hot.
Notes
- For extra crunch, don’t over-crush the cornflakes – aim for a mix of fine and slightly chunky pieces.
- If using shop-bought katsu sauce, check the spice level – some are sweeter, others have more kick.
- Try warming the wrap in the microwave before filling for extra sturdiness.
- You can use chicken mini fillets instead of slicing breasts – no need to cut them down.
- Got leftover crispy chicken? It’s great chopped over salad with a drizzle of katsu sauce the next day.
