1 red chilli

5g, 5 to 6 mint leaves chopped finely

5g, small handful chopped fresh coriander

Method

  • The chilli hit for this dish is the salsa. The dish comes together really quickly – just chop the cucumber, tomatoes, chilli and the herbs and toss them and the lime juice together and leave for the flavours to fuse together. Use the left-over mint herb to flavour your drinking water.
  • Grate the cheese and portion out the yogurt in little bowls to serve separately
  • Slice the raw chicken or meat in long thinnish slithers that fit easily length-ways into the wrap
  • Slice the green pepper, red onion, finely chop the coriander, crush the garlic
  • Add a spray of olive oil to a frying pan and sprinkle in the oregano, paprika and cumin and pile the chicken on top and mix together. As the chicken cooks in the pan, add a little water to stop it from sticking to the pan
  • Add the fresh coriander season it and taste. Place the chicken in a warm bowl to keep while you quickly cook the veg,
  • Add a little spray oil to the pan  and flash fry the green pepper and red onion, sprinkling with the herbs on a highest heat (7) for just 2 minutes with a lid on top of the frying pan, shaking the pan often. Just 2 minutes though to keep them crunchy.
  • Warm the wrap in a microwave or briefly under the grill
  • Finally serve them all up separately – a chicken dish, a pepper and onion dish, the yoghurt, cheese and salsa.
