Wrap Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook Turmeric Rice

    Rinse 1 cup of rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, add the rinsed rice, 2 cups of water, and 1 teaspoon of turmeric. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare Char Chicken (if using)

    If using char chicken, grill or pan-cook the chicken breasts until fully cooked, about 6-7 minutes per side. Let rest for a few minutes, then slice.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Wraps

    Lay a tortilla flat on a clean surface. Add a scoop of turmeric rice, a handful of shredded cheddar cheese, and sliced char chicken (if using) in the center of the tortilla.

  4. 4

    Roll the Wrap

    Fold in the sides of the tortilla, then roll from the bottom up to encase the filling. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut each wrap in half and serve with lime caesar dressing for dipping.
