  2. Cut the red onion and bell peppers in strips.
  3. Slice the tomatoes. Shred the iceberg lettuce, chop the fresh coriander and keep all the salad ingredients cold until service.
Cooking
  1. Stir fry the chicken breast fillet in extra oil if needed until brown. Remove and set aside for later.
  2. Stir fry the onion and garlic and cook until softened.
  3. Add the bell peppers and cook until soft.
  4. Add the chilli powder, ground cumin, ground coriander and ground paprika and seasoning to taste.
  5. Add the tomato puree and sweet chili sauce. Stir to combine. Add some water or stock to get the right consistency without making the sauce too runny.
  6. Add the browned chicken to the sauce and allow the sauce to simmer for 15 min or until the vegetables and chicken are cooked.
  7. Reheat the wraps in the oven or steamer.
  8. Serve the chicken fajitas with the wraps. Offer on the side the sour cream, extra sweet chilli sauce, grated cheese, tomatoes, iceberg lettuce, tortilla crisps and chopped coriander.
