Advantages: Quick, cheap easy, people DIY their own food!
Disadvantages: If you have mega fussy eaters!
This dish I used at the weekend to feed 5. I use this idiot proof meal when there are more people than chairs as it is easy to make, takes hardly any time so you can enjoy time with your visitors.
I buy a pack of either Mission Deli wraps, if they are on offer (usually BOGOF) or Morrison's own brand (which tastes no different). There are ready made and cooked wraps which just need to go into a dry frying pan for about 15 seconds on each side to get warm and brown. - This I do first and get a long piece of foil and wrap the wraps up as I go along, these will stay warm either in the oven on low or jut in the foil.
I cut into cubes one small breast of chicken per person and fire up the wok. I stir fry the chicken until cooked (get the biggest piece of meat and just cut in half to check if white inside. Then I add either a stir in sauce or soy sauce, at the weekend I tried an 'Old El Paso' fajita powder mix which worked very well, I also add peppers at this point so they retain their crunch.
Leaving this in the wok when cooked, I prepare vegetables to go into the wraps, I slice onion, peppers, cucumber, tomato, I also use grated cheese spring onion and a tin of sweetcorn, which I leave in plastic bowls. Along with a 4 pack of dips purchased from the supermarket.
~Feeding time. ~
I usually just get people to come and make their own wraps so they can get what they want. Usually 2 wraps per person is plenty packed with chicken and veg. I also take the dips out and have tortillas as well.
All in all this makes a nice dish which is simple and easy and the wraps can be used as fast food with any filling. They have always gone down well as people can choose what they have in their wraps.
Summary: YUM YUM!!!
