Chicken Salsa Wraps
"A versatile recipe, add other veg, or make it hotter by adding chili if you like. I serve this with a green salad. For a lower fat, but just as tasty meal use non fat greek style yoghurt instead of Sour cream. Add a little lemon juice to the yoghurt for a sour taste."

I had a deliciously spicy chicken wrap during a layover in Abu Dhabi airport (of all places!) and have been thinking and thinking of it for a while. I tried out this wrap recipe to recreate my food memory and though it was not the same - the Abu Dhabi wrap had a dry cumin-tinged red glaze on the chicken, without any sour cream and salsa - it was still so good ! I used greek yogurt instead of sour cream, and shredded some Jack cheese to tuck into the filling before wrapping. Very good and most importantly very easy. My chicken also came out on the "wet" side as one of the reviewers mentioned. Yum ! -
DH really enjoyed these, and I thought they were good. Next time I will cut the cumin out completely, we aren't big fans. I added about 1 tsp hot pepper flakes, and it was the perfect spicyness. Thanks for a nice easy dinner. -
DH really liked this dish. Used 3 peppers and 2 med red onions & added some sliced mushrooms I had on hand. The only issue I had was when the dish was done it was watery in the pan. Maybe too many veg? will make again soon.

I really liked the flavor of these wraps. I had never thought of adding honey to the chicken and pepper mixture. It really added to the flavor. I used low carb tortillas and a medium salsa. It was delicious. This is a good meal with little preparation time. -
So fast and easy and very tasty
