  • 102.30 gm tandoori paste
  • 62.50 ml Greek Style Yoghurt
  • 400.00 gm Basmati rice, rinsed

Instructions:
  • With a sharp knife, score each chicken breast four times. Mix tandoori paste with yogurt and coat chicken on both sides. Chill covered until ready to cook.
  • Prepare the rice using the absorption method as directed on the packet. Once cooked, allow it to rest covered for 5 minutes. Then, transfer the rice to a bowl and let it cool to room temperature.

  • Prepare the yogurt dressing by blending yogurt, coriander, oil, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice in a sealed jar. Season with salt and pepper, then shake vigorously until fully mixed.
  • Combine chicken, cucumber, tomatoes, coriander, and mint with the rice. Mix well and serve with a delicious yoghurt dressing.
