500g chicken breast fillet, cubed
45ml Greek yogurt
1 green chilli, deseeded and chopped
Juice of half a lemon
1tsp garam masala
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 jar tikka masala sauce
8 tortilla wraps
Shredded lettuce and raita to serve

Method

Place the chicken in a small bowl and add the yogurt, chilli, lemon and garam masala. Mix well and leave to marinate for 10 minutes (if time allows, this could be done overnight).
Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan, lift the chicken pieces from the marinade, add to the pan one at a time and cook over a high heat for 10 minutes turning them until they are lightly charred on both sides.
Add the tikka masala sauce and bring to the boil.
Simmer over a high heat until the sauce is thickened and reduced.
Serve the chicken pieces and sauce spooned into tortilla wraps with shredded lettuce and raita to finish.
