Equipment

  • 1 Large frypan
  • 1 Small bowl

Ingredients

Filling

  • 1 lettuce
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 carrot
  • 70 g parmesan cheese

Chicken

  • 600 g chicken breast boneless, skinless
  • 2 tbsp Southern style seasoning
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Bacon

  • 100 g bacon

Wrap

  • 4 large wraps or gluten-free wraps

To finish

  • ¼ cup peach & mango chutney or apricot jam
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise

To serve

  • 100 g basil pesto

Instructions

Prep filling

  • Shred or thinly slice 1 lettuce. Peel and slice 1 avocado. Peel and julienne 1 carrot. Grate 70 g parmesan cheese.

Cook chicken

  • Pat 600 g chicken breast dry. Place your hand flat on the top of the chicken and slice through horizontally. Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle over 2 tbsp Southern style seasoning, and toss to coat. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frypan on medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden and cooked through. Rest the chicken on a plate and reserve the pan on medium heat.

Cook bacon

  • While the chicken is cooking, roughly chop 100 g bacon into bits. Once the chicken is resting, add the bacon to the reserved pan on medium-high heat and cook, for 2-3 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Set bacon aside with the chicken and reserve the pan on heat.

Heat wraps (optional)

  • Carefully wipe the reserved pan clean. Heat 4 large wraps individually on the pan for 1 minute on each side, or until warmed through.

Make apricot mango mayo

  • In a small bowl combine ¼ cup peach & mango chutney and 2 tbsp mayonnaise.

To serve

  • Lay the warmed wraps on the bench and spread with the apricot mango mayo. Top with the lettuce, avocado, carrot, chicken, bacon and cheese. Add dollops of the basil pesto. Fold over the bottom of the wrap, then roll the wraps up and serve immediately. Serve any leftover fillings on the side.
