Directions

Rub the harissa paste over the chicken and set aside for 30 minutes to marinate.

For the salsa, combine all the ingredients in a bowl and toss gently to coat. Chill until serving.

To make the avocado cream, place the avo, yoghurt and lemon juice in a processor. Blitz until smooth. Season lightly, then chill.

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a griddle pan. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Cook on one side, without turning, about 4 minutes, then turn and cook for another 3-4 minutes. Add the water and simmer until the sauce thickens. Stir in the yoghurt and heat through. Slice the chicken into strips.

To serve, spread the avo cream onto the warm tortillas, top with lettuce, cheese, chicken strips and heaps of fresh salsa.
