Introduction: Experience the vibrant and exotic flavors of Moroccan cuisine with our Moroccan Chicken Wrap recipe. Perfect for busy days when time is of the essence, this dish offers a quick and easy way to tantalize your taste buds without compromising on nutrition.

Nutritional Benefits:

  • Lean Protein: Tender marinated chicken serves as the star ingredient of this wrap, providing a lean source of protein essential for muscle repair and growth. Protein also helps keep you feeling full and satisfied, making this wrap a satisfying meal option.

  • Abundant Veggies: Packed with fresh vegetables, including crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes, and crunchy cucumbers, this wrap offers a variety of essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. These nutrients support overall health and well-being, including immune function and disease prevention.

  • Healthy Fats from Yogurt Sauce: The tangy yogurt sauce not only adds a burst of flavor but also provides healthy fats and probiotics. These beneficial fats support heart health, brain function, and nutrient absorption, while probiotics promote gut health and digestion.

Ingredients:
  • 1 tsp Sumac powder
  • 1 tbsp Zaatar seasonings
  • 1 tsp Cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp Red chilli powder
  • 1 pinch Salt and pepper
  • drizzle Olive oil
  • 1/2 Lemon juice squeezed
  • 6 Chicken tenderloin strips
  • 1 cup Salad leaf mix
  • 1 cup Coleslaw mix
  • 3 Wholemeal wraps
  • 3 tbsp Hummus dip
Instructions
  1. In a medium- sized bowl, mix together spices and seasonings, olive oil, and lemon juice until well combined
  2. Place the chicken in the bowl and make sure it is evenly coated with the marinade. Let it sit for 20 minutes or preferably overnight.
  3. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off.
  4. Cook the chicken according to your preferred method until well cooked. I like cooking in the air fryer for 20 mins.
  5. Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before assembling the wrap.
  6. To prepare your wrap, spread a thin layer of hummus on the wrap.
  7. Top off with washed salad leaf mix, coleslaw mix and chicken and fold your wrap. Serve hot!
