Butter Chicken Wrap (Low-Chol)
Chicken breast simmered in a tomato and yogurt curry with ginger, garlic, garam masala and cumin, rolled in a whole-wheat tortilla with cucumber and cilantro. This lower-cholesterol take uses minimal oil and yogurt instead of cream for a lighter take on the classic Indian butter chicken.

Instructions
1
Prep
Toss chicken breast with half the ginger-garlic paste, salt, and turmeric; let sit covered 15 minutes.
2
Sear
Heat olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken 4–5 minutes, turning once, until browned and no longer pink inside.
3
Saute
Slice the onion and add to the skillet. Saute over medium heat 3 minutes until softened and translucent.
4
Simmer
Stir in remaining ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, cumin, and smoked paprika; cook 1 minute. Add canned tomatoes and tomato paste, simmer over medium-low heat 6–8 minutes until sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
5
Finish
Off heat, stir in Greek yogurt, evaporated milk, and honey one spoonful at a time. Fold in black beans and warm through over low heat 1–2 minutes until glossy.
6
Warm
Warm tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat 20–30 seconds per side until pliable.
7
Build
Lay tortilla flat, spoon chicken mixture down the centre, top with cucumber slices and cilantro.
8
Plate
Fold in the sides and roll tightly into a wrap, tucking ends under. Slice diagonally and plate cut sides facing up.
