Prep Time 5mins
Cook Time 15 mins
Serves 2

Ingredients

2 chicken breasts (about 260g) 
2 teaspoons olive oil
20g coriander
sea salt and black pepper
1 small red onion
1 small red pepper
1 small yellow pepper
1 fresh chilli. deseeded and thinly sliced
2 large wholewheat tortillas
60g cheddar cheese, grated

Sauce
1/2 onion
1/2 clove garlic
1 teaspoon olive oil
400g tin of chopped tomatoes
10g agave syrup
2 tablespoons tomato purée
1 teaspoon fajita mix

Directions

Make the pizza sauce first by finely dicing the onion and roughly chopping the garlic. In the oil, cook the garlic and onion until soft but nor coloured, keep the heat no higher than medium for this. Now add the tomatoes, agave syrup, tomato purée and fajita seasoning, bringing to a boil and simmer to reduce down to half the original volume. Once cooled, blend until smooth.

Dice the chicken into small cubes and cook in half the oil, on a high heat for 5-6 minutes. Add in half the coriander and the salt and pepper. Add the onions and peppers with a dash more oil, and heat for 2-3 mins. Reheat the sauce and turn on your grill to medium.

Place the tortillas under the grill for 20seconds each side.  Place on to two large plates, spread the sauce on each one, and place half the chicken and veg mixture on each. Top with the cheese and grill for 2-3 mins until the cheese has melted. Serve with the remaining coriander to garnish.

Low carb option: Omit the tortilla, and replace with a mixed leaf salad or some large lettiuce leaves as the wrap
High carb option: Add a side of sweet potato wedges
