Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Boneless chicken thighs
- 120 grams Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 4 pieces Naan or flatbread
- 1 piece Cucumber, thinly sliced
- 0.5 piece Red onion, thinly sliced
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 4 tablespoons Mint chutney
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, minced ginger, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, chili powder, and salt. Mix well to form a marinade.
Add the boneless chicken thighs to the marinade and ensure they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight for deeper flavor.
Preheat your grill or oven to 200°C (390°F).
Thread the marinated chicken pieces onto skewers.
Lightly oil the grill grates or baking tray with vegetable oil and start cooking the chicken skewers. Grill for about 10-15 minutes on each side until the chicken is cooked through and has a nice char. If using an oven, bake for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skewers and let it rest for a few minutes.
Lay out the naan or flatbread and spread 1 tablespoon of mint chutney on each.
Divide the cooked chicken evenly among the flatbreads, topping each with cucumber slices, red onion slices, and a lettuce leaf.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise over the vegetables.
Roll the flatbread tightly around the filling to form a wrap.
Secure with a toothpick if needed and serve immediately, or wrap in parchment paper for easy handling.
