how to make Ras-el-hanout chicken wraps with a yogurt sauce

Ingredients

4 large chicken breasts
2 heaped tbsp ras-el-hanout spice mix
7-8 tbsp olive oil
Sea salt, to taste
2-3 tbsp pomegranate molasses, to taste
Rocket or lettuce leaves, to serve
4-6 flour tortillas
400g/14oz full-fat Greek yogurt
1 small bunch fresh mint, finely chopped
2 tbsp sumac
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

For the ras-el-hanout chicken wraps, start by cutting the thick side of each chicken breast horizontally. This helps the chicken cook evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the ras-el-hanout spice with 4-5 tablespoons of olive oil to make a paste. Rub this paste all over each chicken breast to fully coat them.
Sprinkle sea salt on each breast, cover with cling film, and place them in the fridge to marinate for at least 10 minutes or up to a few hours.
To make the yogurt sauce, combine the yogurt, fresh mint, and sumac in a small serving bowl. Add a generous pinch of sea salt and some black pepper. Mix everything well until the sumac and mint are evenly distributed.
Preheat a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the remaining olive oil and place the chicken breasts in the pan (you can use two pans if needed).
Cook the chicken for about 8-10 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for another 6-8 minutes. Check if the chicken is done by pressing the thickest part. If it feels springy, let it cook a bit longer. Cut the chicken with a skewer or knife; if the juices run clear and the meat is no longer pink, it’s ready.
After cooking, transfer the chicken to a chopping board and let it rest for a few minutes. Then slice the chicken into strips.
For serving, place a few chicken strips on each tortilla wrap, add a dollop of yogurt sauce, and drizzle with pomegranate molasses. Top with rocket or lettuce leaves, roll up the tortillas, and enjoy!

how to store Ras-el-hanout chicken wraps with a yogurt sauce

If you have any leftovers, store the chicken wraps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. For best results, keep the yogurt sauce separate until you’re ready to eat again. Reheat the chicken gently in a pan or microwave before serving.
