Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: Indian
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 pieces of naan
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup red onion, diced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 lime, juiced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup mixed greens
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (around 400°F).
- In a medium bowl, combine halved cherry tomatoes, diced red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper to create the cherry salsa. Let the mixture sit and marinate for 10 minutes to develop flavors.
- Lightly brush each naan bread with olive oil on both sides to prevent sticking and enhance grilling.
- Grill the naan bread for approximately 1-2 minutes per side until light grill marks appear and bread is slightly crispy. Remove and set aside.
- In a separate bowl, mix shredded chicken with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of lime juice to enhance its flavor.
- To assemble the wraps, lay out the grilled naan bread and layer with mixed greens as the base.
- Top the greens with seasoned shredded chicken, then spoon the cherry salsa over the chicken.
- Carefully fold the sides of the naan bread to create a wrap, ensuring the filling is securely enclosed.
- Slice the wrap diagonally and serve immediately while the naan is still warm and crispy.
Tips
- For maximum flavor, let your cherry salsa sit for at least 10 minutes before assembling the wraps to allow the ingredients to meld together.
- Use a hot grill (around 400°F) to achieve those perfect, crispy grill marks on your naan bread.
- Choose a high-quality, pre-cooked rotisserie chicken to save time without compromising on taste.
- Don't overload your wrap - balance is key to preventing tearing and ensuring easy eating.
- Serve immediately after assembling to enjoy the naan at its crispiest and the salsa at its freshest.
- For a spicy kick, add a dash of sriracha or red pepper flakes to your chicken or salsa.
- If you don't have a grill, a heavy skillet or grill pan works perfectly for toasting the naan.
