A Greek-style twist on the Taco Bell classic – think gyros meets crunchwrap. Juicy spiced chicken, crispy smashed potatoes, fresh Greek salad and tzatziki, all wrapped up and pan-fried until golden.

Method

  • Boil the potatoes in salted water until soft enough to stab with a fork. Drain and leave to steam dry, then tip onto a baking sheet and smash each potato with the base of a glass. Drizzle with olive oil and season with oregano, paprika and sea salt. Roast at 200°C (fan) for 15–20 minutes until crispy on the edges.
  • Toss the chicken pieces with olive oil, spices, lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Slide onto skewers and grill until golden and cooked through, or pan-fry. Let the chicken rest, then slice into strips.
  • Combine Greek salad ingredients and dress with olive oil, lemon juice and oregano.
  • Use a cereal-size bowl as a guide to cut half of the tortillas into smaller circles. Warm a full tortilla so it’s flexible. Spread tzatziki in the centre, then add Greek salad, chicken, smashed potatoes, a drizzle of harissa (if using) and shredded lettuce. Place the smaller tortilla on top, then fold the edges of the larger tortilla into a crunchwrap shape.
  • Pan-fry seam-side down in a little olive oil for 2–3 minutes each side until golden brown and sealed. Slice in half and serve hot with extra tzatziki or lemon wedges.
