Method

 

Marinate the Chicken

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the cubed chicken with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, red chili powder, smoked paprika, and coriander powder.
2. Add mayonnaise, oil, and freshly squeezed lemon juice.
3. Mix thoroughly to coat the chicken.
4. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or overnight for deeper flavor).

Cook the Chicken

1. Heat 1 tbsp clarified butter (ghee) in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
2. Add half the chicken, spacing pieces out to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally until lightly browned.
3. Cover and cook for another 4–5 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked through and juicy.
4. Repeat with the remaining chicken and another tablespoon of ghee.
5. Set aside.

Make the Spicy Garlic Yogurt Sauce

1. In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, hot sauce, and lemon juice.
2. Stir in chopped parsley.
3. If desired, add buttermilk 1 tablespoon at a time to reach your preferred consistency.
4. Taste and adjust seasoning/spice level.

Assemble the Wraps

1. Warm tortillas in a dry pan or skillet for 1–2 minutes per side
2. Layer each wrap with lettuce, cooked chicken, tomatoes, and onions
3. Drizzle generously with the spicy garlic yogurt sauce
4. Fold the sides and roll tightly into a wrap
5. Serve immediately for best taste and texture

Recipe Notes & Tips

• Marination Tip: The longer the marination, the more tender and flavorful your chicken will be.
• Chicken Alternatives: Try with grilled shrimp, tofu, or paneer for variations.
• Make it a Meal Prep: Cooked chicken and sauce can be stored separately in the fridge for up to 3 days. Assemble wraps just before eating.
• Low-Carb Option: Swap tortillas with lettuce wraps or low-carb wraps.
