About this recipe
Tikka Masala Wraps Thermomix TM7 bring the vibrant flavours of an Indian takeaway straight into your kitchen, folded into soft tortillas for an easy weeknight dinner. Succulent chicken breast is bathed in a marinade of plain yoghurt, lemon juice, garam masala, sweet paprika, garlic powder and ground ginger, then baked until golden and juicy. The all-in-one kitchen machine proves its worth at every stage: spices and marinade come together in seconds, and fresh coriander is chopped finely without a knife or board. Each wrap delivers creamy, gently spiced chicken with a bright citrus lift, finished with a scatter of coriander leaves. Whether you are cooking for hungry children after school or hosting a casual Friday gathering, these wraps are assembled in minutes and eaten even faster. Anyone searching for tikka masala recipes with a modern twist will find this Thermomix version irresistibly simple.
Preparation tips
- Marinate the chicken in the yoghurt spice mixture for at least half an hour so the garam masala and lemon juice penetrate deeply, giving noticeably juicier and more aromatic bites after baking.
- Warm the tortillas briefly in the oven while the chicken rests, so the wraps stay pliable and fold neatly around the filling without cracking or tearing at the edges.
- Swap the plain yoghurt for Greek yoghurt if you prefer a thicker marinade, and let children build their own wraps with extra coriander and a mild yoghurt sauce on the side.
Recipe variations
- Make a vegetarian version by replacing the chicken breast with firm paneer or cauliflower florets; the yoghurt, garam masala and paprika marinade works beautifully on both alternatives.
- For a lactose-free variant, use coconut yoghurt instead of plain yoghurt and choose lactose-free tortillas, keeping the same warming spice profile with ginger and paprika.
