Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 pieces naan bread
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.5 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 cups plain Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cups mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- 0.5 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cups mixed greens or lettuce
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of olive oil with curry powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create a spice rub.
Rub the spice mixture evenly over both chicken breasts. Allow to marinate for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Grill the chicken breasts for 6-8 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In a separate bowl, combine Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and chopped cilantro to create the curry sauce. Mix well and set aside.
Warm the naan bread in a dry pan or directly on the grill for about 1 minute per side until soft and pliable.
Assemble the sandwiches by spreading a generous layer of the curry sauce over one side of a naan. Add sliced grilled chicken, mixed greens, tomato slices, and red onion. Fold the naan in half around the filling.
Repeat with the remaining naan and ingredients. Serve immediately and enjoy your Curry Naan Grilled Chicken Sandwich!
