Tandoori Chicken Tortillas

This is a healthy version of fast food using ingredients that makes a quick, simple, and tasty supper.  I am working in London today (yes I do have a proper job, honest) so had to quickly chop up the chicken breasts and mix together natural yoghurt with tandoori mix and pour it over the chicken before going to bed last night.  The chicken will marinate all day and be ready for Hubby to cook this evening.  I haven’t told him he’s cooking yet!

Ingredients for the Chicken

400g chicken breast, cut into thin strips or deboned thighs if you can get them

3 – 4 tbsp. tandoori mix

1 tbsp. lime juice

2 small pots of natural yoghurt

8 large flour tortillas, or pitta bread

Salad of choice, I’ll be using lettuce, cucumber, white cabbage, sweetcorn and carrot

Skewers, optional.

Raita

1 pot of natural yoghurt

Half a cucumber with the seeds scraped out then finely chopped

1 tbsp. finely chopped mint or a teasp. of mint sauce from a jar

Lemon or lime wedges to serve.

Method

Combine the lime juice, tandoori mix and yoghurt in a bowl and add the strips of chicken, ensuring it is coated with the mix.  Cover and leave in the fridge overnight or for at least 2 hours if you can.

When you are ready to cook it, cover the grill tray with foil and whack your grill to its highest heat and place the chicken pieces onto the foil on skewers if you want or on their own.  Once cooked through put to one side to keep warm.

Heat up the tortillas following the instructions on the pack. 

 Place the chicken, tortillas, salad, lemon wedges and raita onto the table and let your tribe build their own meal.  It’s lovely with a cold beer!
