Ingredients

  • 1 tortilla wrap

Chicken & Marinade

  • 1 medium chicken breast
  • 25 g (1 oz) tikka curry paste
  • 2 tablespoon Greek yoghurt

Dressing

  • 1 tablespoon mango chutney
  • 1 tablespoon Greek yoghurt

Salad

  • 25 g (1oz) cucumber
  • ¼ small red onion
  • 10 g (½ oz) spinach
  • 3 small cherry tomatoes

Instructions

  • Chop the chicken into chunks and place it in a mixing bowl. Add the yoghurt and tikka paste, give it a good stir and  if you have time, leave to marinate – ideally for at least 30 minutes (or overnight if you’re prepping ahead).
  • Cook the chicken in the air fryer at 200˚C for 7–9 minutes, giving it a shake halfway through. Or pop it under the grill for 5–7 minutes on each side. Just make sure the chicken is cooked through and nicely golden.
  • While the chicken is cooking, mix a spoonful of mango chutney with 1tbsp natural yoghurt to make your dressing. Finely dice the tomato, red onion & cucumber.
  • Lay out your wraps, spread the dressing over the wrap, add a handful of spinach, spoon over the chopped onion, tomato & cucumber, then top with the diced chicken.
  • Drizzle the rest of the mango chutney yoghurt over the chicken.
  • Fold the sides of the wrap in, then roll it up tightly from the bottom – a bit like wrapping a present – so everything stays tucked in. Slice in half and serve immediately.

Notes

Variations
  • Use lettuce instead of spinach if that’s what you’ve got
  • Fancy a kick? Stir a little chilli sauce into the mango yoghurt
  • Swap the wrap for a pitta or flatbread
 
Marinate the chicken the day before if you can.
Leftover chicken lasts up to 3 days, or freeze it for up to 3 months. Just reheat until piping hot – it might be a little drier once reheated.
