Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless skinless chicken breast
- 0.5 cup Plain low-fat yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 Whole wheat wraps
- 1 Fresh cucumber, sliced
- 2 Tomato, sliced
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 Fresh lime
- 2 cups Mixed salad greens
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
In another bowl, combine the yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, cumin, coriander, garam masala, paprika, and turmeric to create the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the chicken pieces and mix well until fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for more intense flavor.
Preheat your grill or a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil to the skillet if using.
Cook the marinated chicken pieces on the grill or skillet, turning occasionally, until fully cooked and slightly charred, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Warm up the whole wheat wraps in a dry pan or microwave for a few seconds to make them pliable.
Place a handful of mixed salad greens onto each wrap.
Divide the cooked chicken equally among the wraps, placing the pieces over the salad greens.
Add slices of cucumber, tomato, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro to each wrap.
Squeeze a wedge of fresh lime over the top of each wrap for added brightness.
Fold the sides of the wrap over the filling and roll tightly. Secure with a toothpick if needed.
Serve immediately while ingredients are fresh and vibrant.
