Serves: 2
Level: Easy
Ingredients
For the Chicken Filling:
300g boneless chicken (cut into small pieces)
2 tbsp oil or butter
2 tsp ginger-garlic paste
½ tsp red chili powder
½ tsp turmeric
½ tsp cumin powder
2 tsp garam masala
2 tbsp lemon juice
Salt to taste
For the Roll:
3 parathas or chapatis
½ cup sliced onions
3 tbsp green chutney or mayonnaise
2 tbsp tomato ketchup
Fresh coriander leaves
Step 1: Cook the Chicken
Heat oil in a pan. Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté until fragrant. Add chicken pieces and cook on high flame for 2–3 minutes. Now add all the spices — red chili, turmeric, cumin, garam masala, salt, and lemon juice. Mix well, cover, and cook for another 8–10 minutes until the chicken becomes tender and juicy.
Step 2: Prepare the Wrap Base
Warm your parathas or chapatis on a tawa with a few drops of ghee for extra flavor. Make sure they stay soft and not too crispy.
Step 3: Assemble the Roll
Place the paratha on a flat surface. Spread green chutney or mayo, add the cooked chicken filling, top it with sliced onions and coriander leaves, and drizzle some tomato ketchup for a tangy touch. Roll it tightly in foil or butter paper.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy!
Your Desi Chicken Roll is ready! Serve it hot with mint chutney or spiced yogurt.
💡 Pro Tips
Add a few drops of vinegar to the onions for an extra zing.
If you love spice, toss in a pinch of crushed black pepper or green chili.
For a smoky flavor, briefly flame-roast the chicken pieces before assembling.
