Cafe Concerto, York, UK - Chicken Wrap Recipe, GF - Anglophile Friday

 Cafe Concerto, York

 Their chicken sub

 Exterior of Cafe Concerto
I love the bright colors against all the stone or brick of Yorkshire.

 I probably would have gone back inside if this guy
had taken his German Shepherd into the cafe
(to meet the dog, not the guy, of course.)

 Some old tourist I kept running into
That camera's a dead giveaway.

One of my favorite meals while in England (and very few of them aren't fish and chips), was a chicken avocado sub sandwich at Cafe Concerto in York. Yes, I surreptitiously wrote down my guess of the ingredients on a paper napkin. I can be very tricky. (Even if they notice, they probably just roll their eyes and chalk it up to 'tourist.')

Here's the list of ingredients, as close as I could figure it, with a few changes:

1 tortilla, rather than a bun (I got my Gluten-free tortilla at ALDI*)

2 T. hummus

1/2 avocado, thinly sliced

1 Roma tomato, thinly sliced

1/2 small onion, thinly sliced

Some leafy greens

1/2 green or red bell pepper, thinly sliced

2-4 oz. baked chicken breast, thinly sliced
(I'm thinking that 'thinly' probably has some psychological significance).

One thinly drizzled drizzle (about 1 T. Green Goddess salad dressing)

Spread hummus on half the tortilla. Arrange avocado and tomato and onion slices on the same half, then pile on the greens, bell pepper, and chicken breast. Drizzle Green Goddess dressing over other ingredients.

Sprinkle with freshly-ground black pepper and salt

Try to wrap up the wrap. It's not easy, but I did manage to get it to my mouth and it was delicious. My kitchen didn't have quite the same ambience as Cafe Concerto, but at least the wrap tasted really good. Really good!

If you stick to the ingredient list above, the total calories will be about 410. Next time I would add more chicken and less avocado.

Actually, I liked my chicken wrap even better than the

sub sandwich at Cafe Concerto, but there is something about

being in York, rather than my own kitchen...

*ALDI. Okay, I realize that most people say, 'ALDI'  But until I looked it up, I could not understand why it wouldn't be 'Aldi's, as it would be Judy's, if the store were mine. No one would say, I'm going to Judy.'  But you will be happy to know that I just read the history of ALDI, and you can read it here. Now I know the rest of the story and will always, from here and forevermore, pronounce it ALDI. (Maybe). My daughters will be happy.
