Leftover KFC Chicken Wrap

Posted by whilehewasout on November 7, 2012 · 1 Comment 

This is an express post with a suggestion what to do with the leftover KFC chicken strips! Or any chicken strips…

We’ve bought the other day a big pack of KFC chicken (I know, I know, but sometimes you just get tempted to eat something not-so-healthy and bad for your shape foods) and eventually we had a few pieces of leftover chicken strips for the next day. As I don’t like throwing out food, I had to come up with an idea to use it up – and here we go, home-made KFC chicken wrap 🙂

Ingredients (for 1 wrap):

1 tortilla flatbread
iceberg lettuce
2 eggs
leftover chicken strips
mayonnaise
Preparation:

1. To make the flatbread yourself (recipe is for 3 normal size tortillas, you can aso freeze them):
Dissolve a teaspoon of salt in 1/3 cup tepid water, in another bowl work 1tbsp of shortening (or RAMA) into 1 cup of flour. Add the salty water to the flour mix and make the dough – if it is too sticky, add a little more flour. Make 3 balls from the dough and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest for about 30 minutes before rolling it out on a floured surface (I use the same recipe to make piadina). When ready to use, bake both sides in a hot frying pan until bubbles and brown spots appear.

2. Make a fast omelette from the eggs and mount the omelette, lettuce leaves, mayo, chicken strips (and anything else you desire) onto the tortilla. Roll up the tortilla, wrap the lower half in foil (so as not to burn your hands) and enjoy! I have made a small `tutorial´ on how to fold the tortilla so it won’t fall apart:
