Description

These easy, spicy chicken wraps with blistered cherry tomatoes are delicious for weeknight dinners loaded up with garlic aioli and all of your favourite toppings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tbsp hot sauce
  • 1 tbsp light olive oil
  • 1 tbsp runny honey
  • juice of 1/4 lemon
  • 1 tsp sweet smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp dried chilli flakes
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 4 skinless boneless chicken thighs
  • large handful cherry tomatoes
  • soft flour tortilla wraps
  • fresh rocket
  • garlic aioli
  • natural yogurt or low fat creme fraiche

Instructions

  1. First marinate the chicken – I like to do this a couple of hours in advance. Either in a medium bowl or a plastic bag, combine the hot sauce (I’ve used Mahi’s Bhut Jolokia #ad), olive oil, runny honey, lemon juice paprika, dried chilli flakes and salt. Cut the chicken thighs into strips and toss them in the marinade.
  2. When you’re ready to cook, heat a griddle pan (or the barbecue if it is summertime) over a high heat. Cook the chicken in batches until just cooked through and charred – be sure to keep the window open as it can get smoky depending on what brand of hot sauce you prefer! Set aside on a warm plate under foil to keep warm.
  3. Charr the tomatoes on the hot griddle until just blistered.
  4. Serve the chicken and tomatoes with the wraps, rocket, aioli, and the yogurt or creme fraiche, bringing everything to the table so that you can help yourselves.
