Peri-peri seasoning, adopted by South African cuisine from neighboring Mozambique, adds heat to this chicken wrap. Chicken breast is marinated with ground red pepper and Turkish red pepper flakes, grilled, and rolled in flatbread with crisp red onion and lettuce. It makes a quick dinner or a convenient lunchbox meal.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the marinade

5 min

Mix the ground red pepper, Turkish red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, thyme, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Coat the chicken breast with the mixture.

2

Marinate the chicken

10 min

Cover the marinated chicken and let it rest in the refrigerator; even a short rest allows the spices to penetrate the meat.

3

Grill the chicken

12 min

Heat the grill to medium-high. Cook the chicken for a total of 12 minutes, turning it, until golden on all sides and fully cooked inside.

4

Roll the wraps

3 min

Slice the grilled chicken, place it on the flatbread with the lettuce and red onion, and roll it up tightly.

Reminder

After marinating the chicken, let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes; chilled meat cooks more evenly on the grill. Allergen: contains wheat (gluten).

Tavuğu akşamdan marine edip ertesi gün ızgarada pişirdim, 12 dakikada her tarafı güzelce kızardı ve içi sulu kaldı. Pul biberi biraz artırarak daha acılı hale getirdim, kırmızı soğan ve marulla dürümde harika bir denge oldu.
