I love using the Nando's Peri Peri sauces to coat chicken, it is such a simple way to switch up a dish and is packed full of flavour. And using it to make this simple wrap is perfect for busy weeknights or a quick Friday Fakeaway option just add some delicious Hot Chippies on the side and you have your own homemade fakeaway meal
Ingredients
Approx. 3-4 Tbsp of Nandos Peri Peri Marinade *See note 1
2 Pieces of Chicken Thigh Approx. 250-300g *See note 2
½ Small Capsicum Sliced
½ Red Onion Sliced
100g of Tzatziki
1 Tomato Sliced
3-4 Lettuce Leaves Chopped
2 Tbsp of Jalapenos (optional) *See note 3
2 Sprigs of Coriander (Optional) *See note 4
Salt and Pepper to Taste
2 Wraps of your choice I use Simsons Pantry Wholemeal Wraps approx.45g each
1-2 Tsp of Olive Oil for cooking
Directions
If your Chicken thigh is quite thick flatten it out and then add your Nandos Peri Peri Marinade to your Chicken thighs leave for a few hours to marinate in the fridge covered if possible. If you don’t have time you can marinate and cook right away.
Preheat your pan to a medium heat with olive oil. Cook your chicken in your pan on a medium heat for about 5-7minutes per side or until chicken is cooked through completely, please be careful as the marinade can splash so if you have cover for your pan pop it on* See note 5
Slice your capsicum and add in about ½ way through to give it some colour, you can use a few mixed baby capsicums too *see Note 6
While this is cooking slice your salad ingredients up to get them ready and get your wraps out
When the chicken is pretty much cook heat up your wraps, I like to heat mine up in a pan with No oil it doesn’t need it and only takes about 10 seconds per side, otherwise you can heat it in the microwave too but the pan does taste better
When everything is ready and your Tzatziki to your wraps all over the bottom then add the chicken I like to slice mine to make it easier to eat leaving a small gap at the bottom of the wrap so you can fold it. Then add on the salad the tomato, red onion, jalapeños if using, lettuce and coriander too.
If you like you can also add mayo etc to this wrap
Wrap it up and serve right away
