Butter Chicken Wrap
Chicken breast simmered in a spiced tomato-butter sauce with Greek yogurt and cream, wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla with cottage cheese folded through the filling for a protein boost. Garam masala, fenugreek and paprika carry the flavour, finished with cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
