Ingredients (serves 4)

Chicken

  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chilli flakes
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground white pepper
  • 1 tsp vegetable oil
  • Sweet chilli sauce
  • Little gem lettuce
  • 2 sliced tomatoes
  • 1/2 sliced cucumber
  • 8 small plain wraps

Peri-peri mayonnaise

  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp chilli flakes
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch sugar
  • Lemon juice

Cooking instructions

Step 1:

For the wrap filling, slice the chicken breasts into strips.

Mix all the dry seasoning ingredients together in a bowl and massage into the chicken pieces, making sure they are all thoroughly coated.

Step 2:

Put the oil into the frying pan on a high heat, then, when it’s fully heated, add the chicken. It should sizzle when it hits the pan.

Leave the chicken frying in the pan without moving it, so it gets nice and crispy around the edges.

Step 3:

While the chicken is cooking, place the wraps in a dry frying pan to warm them, switching them around to make sure they are all heated up.

After about five minutes, flip the chicken strips over, turn the heat down a little, and fry more gently until it’s fully cooked through.

Combine all the peri-peri mayonnaise ingredients in a bowl, mixing thoroughly.

Step 4:

When the chicken is fully cooked, it’s time to serve.

Take a warmed wrap, spread generously with sweet chilli sauce and layer the lettuce, cucumber and tomato on top.

Add a serving of chicken then drizzle with the peri-peri mayonnaise, fold the wrap and serve with a side salad.

 

Top tip:

Spice it up with a bottle of your favourite hot sauce.
