Tandoori Chicken Wrap

Tandoori Chicken Wrap is a flavorful fusion dish that combines tender, spiced chicken marinated in traditional Indian spices with fresh vegetables, all wrapped in a soft flatbread. This Kosher variation ensures that the dish is not only delicious but also adheres to dietary laws.

Ingredients

• boneless chicken thighs - 300 grams
• plain yogurt - 150 grams
• tandoori masala - 2 tablespoons
• lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• garlic, minced - 2 cloves
• ginger, minced - 1 tablespoon
• salt - 1 teaspoon
• olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• whole wheat flatbreads - 2 pieces
• cucumber, sliced - 100 grams
• red onion, thinly sliced - 50 grams
• tomato, diced - 100 grams
• fresh cilantro, chopped - 2 tablespoons
• lime wedges - 2 pieces

Steps

1. In a bowl, combine yogurt, tandoori masala, lemon juice, minced garlic, minced ginger, and salt to create a marinade.
2. Add the chicken thighs to the marinade and coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours for best flavor.
3. Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush with olive oil.
4. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and slightly charred. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 75°C.
5. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
6. Warm the whole wheat flatbreads on the grill for about 1 minute on each side.
7. To assemble the wraps, place sliced chicken on each flatbread, then top with cucumber, red onion, diced tomato, and fresh cilantro.
8. Drizzle with additional yogurt or a squeeze of lime, then roll up the flatbreads tightly to enclose the filling.
9. Serve the wraps with lime wedges on the side.
