The recipe for marinated chicken wraps is an excellent choice for a delicious and flavorful meal. Start by preparing the chicken, cutting the meat into strips about 3-4 cm wide. This size will allow for even marination and ensure quick cooking. In a generous bowl, mix the marinade ingredients, which may include olive oil, lemon juice, crushed garlic, salt, pepper, and spices to taste, such as paprika or cumin. Once the marinade is blended, add the chicken strips and mix well so that they are evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least one hour, during which the flavors will intensify. After the chicken has marinated, take it out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature. In a skillet, melt a piece of butter over low heat and add finely chopped onion. Sauté the onion for about 10 minutes until it becomes soft and translucent. Then, add the chopped bell peppers and continue to sauté the mixture for another 10 minutes, until the peppers become tender and the flavors meld. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Use a blender to combine all the necessary ingredients for the dressing, including yogurt, garlic, fresh herbs, and a little salt. Once you achieve a smooth consistency, taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed. In a baking tray lined with aluminum foil, place the marinated chicken strips. Bake at 190°C (gas mark 5) for 10 minutes, then flip the pieces to the other side and continue cooking for another 8-9 minutes, being careful not to let the meat dry out. An alternative to baking is frying the chicken in a skillet with a little olive oil, which will give it a crispy crust and a special flavor. To assemble the wraps, on each wrap place a layer of sautéed onion, bell peppers, grated carrot, and fresh salad leaves. Add a teaspoon of dressing on top, then the pieces of chicken. Roll the wrap, bringing just one edge inside, similar to how you would prepare stuffed cabbage, and set it aside. Repeat the process with all the wraps, ensuring each is generously filled. Finally, serve the wraps alongside a fresh salad to complete this delicious and colorful meal. These marinated chicken wraps are not only tasty but also versatile, as they can be enjoyed both warm and cold, making them perfect for a picnic or a quick lunch.
