Tandoori-spiced chicken is served in tortillas with crunchy corn slaw and a cooling yoghurt herb sauce.

Serves: 4 people

Preparation time: 30 min

Ingredients

  • Chicken thighs or breast, diced – 600 g
  • Small tortillas – 8
  • Greek yoghurt – 200 g
  • Tandoori masala – 2 tbsp
  • Lemon juice – 2 tbsp
  • Garlic – 2 cloves
  • Corn kernels – 200 g
  • Red cabbage, shredded – 200 g
  • Radishes, sliced – 6
  • Avocado – 1
  • Fresh mint or coriander – small handful
  • Salt – to taste
  • Oil – 1 tbsp

Method

STEP 1
Mix half of the yoghurt with tandoori masala, lemon juice, grated garlic and salt. Coat the chicken and let it marinate while you prepare the toppings.

STEP 2
Stir the remaining yoghurt with chopped mint or coriander and a squeeze of lemon. Keep this sauce cool until serving.

STEP 3
Toss corn, red cabbage and radishes with a little lemon juice and salt. The slaw should taste bright, because it balances the warm spices in the chicken.

STEP 4
Cook the chicken in a hot oiled pan until browned outside and fully cooked inside. Do not crowd the pan, otherwise the yoghurt marinade will release too much moisture.

STEP 5
Warm the tortillas. Fill them with slaw, tandoori chicken, avocado and yoghurt herb sauce. Serve while the chicken is hot.
