The ingredients are rolled up in the tortilla and served hot, making it a convenient and portable meal. Chicken wraps can be served as a main dish, snack, or even as a party food.

Nutrition – Chicken Wrap
Chicken wraps can be a nutritious and filling meal, depending on the ingredients used. A classic chicken wrap made with grilled chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, and mayonnaise can provide a good source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats. However, it is important to be mindful of the sauces and dressings used, as these can add up in terms of calories and unhealthy fats. To make a healthier wrap, opt for grilled chicken, fresh vegetables, and light dressings and sauces.

Notes & Tips
- Spiciness: It is best to use Kashmiri red chilli powder or deghi mirch. You can adjust spices of Chicken patties as per your preference.
- Oil: You can use any neutral tasting oil. Some options are sunflower oil, canola oil or olive oil.
- Ginger Garlic Paste: You can swap paste from fresh ginger and garlic.
- Mayonnaise: It acts as an emulsifier and emulsify Chicken with the veggies and spices. It helps Chicken Patties to remain soft and juicy.
- Onions: I highly recommend to use red onions for that extra crunch.
- Marination: If you are short of time and don't have 2 hours for marination, try to keep at least for 30 minutes.
- Airfryer: You can cook these Patties in Air Fryer also, by keeping close watch in between the timer. Air fryer will take 25 minutes at 180°C to cook these Chicken Patties.
- Seasoning: You can choose any seasoning of your choice. However, oregano makes the Chicken Wrap more tasteful.
