Ingredients
Chicken:
- 1 pound chicken breast cut into 1-2 inch cubes, boneless, skinless
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup whole milk yogurt plain
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons paprika ground
- 1 1/2 teaspoons mint dried crushed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
Sauce:
- 1 red bell pepper large
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika ground
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin ground
- Pinch black pepper freshly ground
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
Wraps:
- 4-6 naan bread Stonefire® Original or Garlic
- 2 cups lettuce roughly torn
- 1 red onion thinly sliced, medium
- 1 cucumber thinly sliced
- 2 tomato thinly sliced, medium
- 1/4 cup cilantro roughly chopped, fresh
- 1/4 cup mint roughly chopped, fresh
Instructions
To prepare the chicken:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the garlic, yogurt, tomato paste, lemon juice, olive oil, paprika, mint, salt, cayenne pepper, allspice, and black pepper. Add the chicken pieces, tossing to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 4-8 hours.
To make the sauce:
- Place the red bell pepper on a baking sheet and heat under the broiler on all sides until charred. Transfer the pepper to a bowl and cover with plastic, making sure the plastic doesn't touch the top of the pepper. Allow to rest for about 20 minutes or cool enough to handle. Remove the stem, seeds, and skin. Roughly chop and place in a blender with the garlic, salt, sugar, paprika, cumin, black pepper, tahini, water, lemon juice, and red wine vinegar. Blend until smooth. Refrigerate until needed.
To assemble the wraps:
- Heat a grill or indoor grill pan over medium heat and lightly grease. Arrange the marinated chicken pieces on skewers, gently shaking off any excess marinade. Working in batches if needed to prevent overcrowding, cook the skewers on preheated grill for 4-5 minutes on each side/10 minutes total, or until cooked through.
- Warm the naan until soft and pliable using the oven, grill, or microwave. Arrange the lettuce, red onion, cucumber, and tomatoes on half of each naan. Place the chicken from 1-2 skewers on top. Drizzle with roasted red pepper tahini sauce and garnish with cilantro and mint before serving.
