The word salsa means “sauce”, in many recipes online it says salsa sauce. This is actually not correct because it says: “sauce sauce”. In this dish I made the tomato salsa myself. That is not at all complicated and very tasty. Especially because it often uses coriander and I really don’t like that…. An easy lunch or a quick dinner is this egg wrap with spicy chicken and salsa. And that salsa? You can definitely keep it in the fridge for 5 days for other tasty dishes! egg low carb wrap with chicken
Quinoa is a type of flowering plant in the Amaranthaceae family. It is native to South America and is considered a superfood due to its high nutritional value and protein content. It is often eaten as a grain, but is not actually a grain and can be safely eaten by people with gluten intolerance. Quinoa comes in a variety of colors, including white, pink, red, and black.
And this is how you make the Egg Wrap with spicy chicken and salsa:
Start by cutting the chicken into nice strips and season it with a mix of Mexican spices and a generous dash of olive oil. Let the chicken marinate for a bit, so that the flavors are well absorbed. While the chicken is resting, grab the food processor and add all the ingredients for the salsa. Don't forget to clean the garlic cloves and squeeze the lime well. Cut the red onion into quarters and remove the outer skin for a fresh taste. Blend everything in the machine until you get a smooth, flavorful sauce. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. For an even richer taste experience, you can prepare both the salsa and the marinated chicken the night before, but this is of course not necessary. This ensures that every bite is full of delicious flavors!
Making the wraps:
-Take a measuring cup and put the three eggs in it and beat them. Then fry an omelette in a frying pan with a little olive oil.
- In another frying pan, fry the chicken pieces until cooked through. Cut the bell pepper into very thin strips.
