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
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.
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.
