Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 2 tablespoons curry powder
  • 1 ripe mango, sliced
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small red onion, chopped
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Preparation Steps

Start by heating the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped red onion and sliced bell pepper, cooking until they are soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Stir in the curry powder and cook for another minute to release the spices’ aroma.

Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the shredded chicken, stirring well to coat with the curry sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it cook for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.

While the chicken mixture is simmering, prepare the mango slices and set them aside. Warm the tortillas slightly in a dry skillet or microwave to make them more pliable.

To assemble the wraps, spoon a generous amount of the coconut curry chicken onto each tortilla. Top with slices of mango and garnish with fresh cilantro. Roll up the tortillas tightly, folding in the sides as you go.

Serving Suggestions

Serve the coconut curry chicken and mango tortilla wraps immediately, accompanied by a side of mixed greens or a light cucumber salad. For an extra touch, add a dollop of yogurt or a squeeze of lime for added freshness.
