Tandoori Chicken Wraps
★★★★★ 5/5
Spiced chicken pieces loaded with salad, a refreshing mint dip and oozing with cheesy goodness encased in a soft flour tortilla. The perfect chicken dinner idea that will keep everyone happy.
Tandoori chicken wraps are a delicious dinner idea packed full of protein. This easy homemade chicken tortilla wraps recipe is amazing. A spicy tandoori chicken cheese filling with lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, and red onions lathered with a refreshing mint dip encased in a soft flour tortilla.
This chicken wraps recipe is the best combination of flavour. These homemade wraps can be eaten for lunch or dinner, hot or cold. There is no marination time, so these chicken wraps are so quick to make. Adults and children alike will be guaranteed to love them.
I love chicken and I love wraps. I make all sorts of different chicken wraps from spicy ones to cheesy ones to healthy ones. There is just something about those chunks of chicken in the soft flour tortilla that I can’t get enough of.
I developed this recipe for my sister because she loves spices. Everything she eats must have a load of spices. Otherwise, she complains and says it’s too bland. To balance out the spice I made a mint dip. It’s a simple dip recipe. All the recipe involves is yoghurt with mint sauce and a dash of salt. I also like to use cheese in this wrap recipe because I love the combination of cheese and chicken.
This recipe does not take long at all to prepare. Especially if you prepare it beforehand. The marinade can be made the night before to allow the chicken to tenderise and absorb all the flavour. However, if you don’t have the time for that simply allow it to marinate for a minimum of 30 minutes. As the chicken marinates you can prepare the rest of dinner.
This chicken filling is enough for approximately eight tortilla wraps which is all good because wraps usually come in packs of eight. You can add whichever salad you want to, but I like to add lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, and red onions. Apart from for my little sister because she hates all forms of onions, so I don’t add onions into hers. Although one day I am going to secretly give her onions. I want to see if she will notice.
These chicken wraps are perfect served alongside some French fries!
