Love using tortillas to make a delicious meal? Try our Pulled Pork and Cheese Quesadilla! For a long time, lunch was my forgotten meal. I would start the day with a good breakfast and finish with a great dinner, but for lunch I would just grab whatever was available. What I really needed was a few tasty and nutritious options up my sleeve. Lunch recipes I could prepare in advance or when I’m in a hurry. Here is when this fabulous Peri Peri Rice and Chicken Wrap makes an entrance and a pretty spectacular one at that! The savoury flavours of chicken mash perfectly with acidic and spicy piri piri. When wrapped up with fresh vegetables and tasty yoghurt sauce, you have lunch sorted! It’s good stuff and the Peri Peri rice and chicken wrap I’m sharing today is better than good. It’s fantastic! And other than the simple flavoured rice, there is no cooking involved, just assembling. What you need for this delicious wrap are the things you probably already have on hand. Peri peri rice, roast chicken, store-bought or your own, cherry tomatoes, avocado, feta cheese, parsley. And the best thing is spicy and garlicky yogurt sauce, that brings everything together in a tortilla wrap. I can’t get enough!
Peri Peri Rice
Peri peri sauce and flavours are a staple here in the UK thanks to the success of a restaurant chain called Nando’s. But the flavour actually comes from the Portuguese, using peppers they found in Africa. Peri-peri chili peppers are the key, along with garlic. But after this there is a lot of variation in how the peri peri sauce can be made. Each family recipe has their own twist. Peri-peri peppers are likely going to be hard to find outside of a few specific areas. Fortunately you can use several other peppers as substitutes, including jalapeño, cayenne or habanero peppers.
