Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken thighs and coat well. Marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Prepare Garlic Confit

    In a saucepan, combine garlic cloves with enough olive oil to cover. Cook on low heat for about 30 minutes until garlic is soft and golden. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Make Pesto Tahini Kale Slaw

    In a bowl, combine tahini, pesto, and chopped kale. Toss to coat well. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook marinated chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Remove from heat and slice.

  5. 5

    Prepare Fried Potatoes

    Peel and chop potatoes into small cubes. Fry in oil until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Wrap

    On each pita bread, layer sliced chicken, garlic confit, kale slaw, sliced hard-boiled eggs, diced tomatoes, sliced onions, pickles, avocado, and fried potatoes. Roll and wrap tightly.
