The method

  1. 1Heat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Choose a large roasting tray so the ingredients sit in a single layer.
  2. 2Toss chicken, peppers and onions with oil, paprika and cumin. Spread on the tray. Warm the wraps according to the packet when the chicken is almost ready; mix yoghurt with lime juice to serve.
  3. 3Roast for about 30 minutes, turning or stirring vegetables halfway through. Add a splash of water if the tray becomes dry.
  4. 4Check the thickest pieces of every meat or fish ingredient reach 75°C for at least 30 seconds with a clean food thermometer. Continue cooking if needed; time and colour alone are not reliable.
  5. 5Check the vegetables are tender all the way through. Rest for 5 minutes and divide between four plates.
