Ingredients
For the Chicken Marinade
- 500 gm Chicken boneless
- 1 tsp Ginger Paste
- 1 tsp Garlic Paste
- 1 tsp Chili Powder red
- 1 tsp Turmeric Powder
- 1 tsp Coriander Powder
- 1 tsp Hung Yogurt greek yogurt
- 1.5 tsp Salt
For the Flatbread
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour maida
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 pinch Carom Seeds ajwain
- 1 pinch Onion Seeds kalonji
- 1/2 cup Oil
Other Ingredients
- 2 Eggs
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the chicken, ginger paste, garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, hung curd, and salt.
- Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for tender and flavorful chicken.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet or kadai over medium heat.
- Add the marinated chicken to the skillet and cook, covered, for 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the refined flour, salt, carom seeds, onion seeds, and water. Gradually add water until a soft dough forms.
- Knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let it rest for 10-15 minutes. Resting allows the gluten to relax, resulting in softer flatbreads.
- Divide the dough into 2 equal portions and roll each portion into a thin circle using a rolling pin.
- Heat a flat griddle or tawa over medium heat. Cook each flatbread for 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and cooked through.
- Lightly brush the cooked flatbreads with oil.
- Heat a little oil in a separate pan. Add an egg and cook until it forms an omelet.
- Place a flatbread on top of the omelet and press gently. Flip it over.
- Add a portion of the cooked chicken to one side of the flatbread. Fold the other side over the chicken and roll it tightly to form a wrap.
- Serve the Spicy Chicken Kathi Rolls hot with your favorite chutney or ketchup.
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- For extra crunch, add thinly sliced onions or bell peppers sautéed with a pinch of chaat masala to the filling before wrapping.
- For a smoky North Indian touch, briefly char the flatbread directly over an open flame using tongs to impart a tandoori aroma.
- To keep the wrap from getting soggy if packing for later, spread a thin layer of hung curd or mint chutney on the inside of the flatbread, then layer the filling and crunchy veggies just before eating.
- For a high-protein vegetarian alternative, replace chicken with paneer cubes marinated in the same spice mix and lightly pan-seared.
Expert Tips
- Warm the flatbreads slightly before assembling the wraps to make them more pliable and prevent cracking.
- Don't overfill the wraps, as this can make them difficult to fold and eat. Aim for a balanced ratio of filling to flatbread.
- Customize the spice level by adjusting the amount of chili powder or adding a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice mix.
Storage Instructions
- These wraps are best enjoyed fresh. However, leftover filling can be stored separately in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat the filling before assembling fresh wraps.
