Chicken fajita wrap in wholemeal tortilla is the ideal grab-and-go lunch. Spiced fajita chicken, crispy peppers and sweet red onion roll together with fresh rocket and a dollop of creamy yoghurt in a hearty wholemeal tortilla. A handy Mexican-inspired dish that's flavourful and substantial, and fits perfectly within a protein-rich diet.

In Phase 3 you can be a bit more relaxed with carbohydrates, and wholemeal tortilla is a smart choice for that. The wholemeal flour delivers fibre and slow-release carbohydrates that give you energy gradually, whilst the chicken fillet provides a generous serving of protein. This protein-rich foundation keeps you satisfied and stable for hours, so this wrap carries you effortlessly through a busy afternoon within your phase guidelines.

Lovely with a squeeze of lime through the yoghurt or a spoonful of salsa added, and a handful of extra rocket for a fresh, peppery bite.

Zo maak je het

  1. Mix the chicken with fajita seasoning.
  2. Fry the chicken in the oil for 4 minutes and add pepper and onion.
  3. Fry for another 6 minutes until everything is cooked.
  4. Warm the tortilla briefly in a dry pan.
  5. Top with rocket, the chicken mixture and yoghurt and roll up.

Bewaren

Store the cooked chicken and vegetable mixture separately for up to two days in the fridge and roll the wrap just before eating. This keeps the tortilla pliable and not waterlogged.

Variatietips

Swap the chicken for strips of lean beef or a plant-based protein source, or trade the rocket for spinach. A pinch of smoked paprika adds extra smoky depth to the filling.
