Tandoori Ranch Chicken Wraps

Here is my second recipe for the Hidden Valley Ranch recipe competition. This time I used Hidden Valley Ranch as part of the marinade for the tandoori chicken. Typically, when making tandoori chicken, the meat is marinated in a mixture of tandoori spices and yogurt. I substituted the yogurt for Hidden Valley Original Ranch and it worked out great. The chicken has a great flavor and is balanced with the fresh tomatoes and lettuce in the wrap.

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts , cubed
  • 1 cup Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing , divided
  • 3 tbsp lemon juice , divided
  • 2 tbsp garam masala
  • 1/2 tbsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tbsp paprika

  • Heat grill to high heat. Place chicken skewers on grill and cook for about 8 minutes. Flip and cook another 8 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink. Remove from the grill.
  • In a bowl, toss the diced tomato, green onion, cilantro and remaining 1 tbsp lemon juice.
  • Remove chicken from the skewers.
  • Assemble the wraps by placing 1 or 2 lettuce leaves, meat from one skewer, 2 to 3 tablespoons of the tomato mixture and some of the remaining Hidden Valley Ranch in each wrap.
  • Serve immediately.

    What a great filling for a wrap. I made some tandoori style chicken this past weekend too… isn’t it always a good easy meal to make when the marinade does all the work.
