Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Pre-heat the grill to high then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air
Combine your curry powder, half your natural yoghurt (you'll use the rest later!), 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] vegetable oil and a very generous pinch of salt in a bowl
Add your chicken breast strips and give everything a good mix up – this is your coated chicken
Drizzle a baking tray with vegetable oil (to prevent the chicken from sticking)
Add the coated chicken to the tray and put it under the grill for 10-12 min, turning the chicken half way through cooking, until the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!) and starting to char – this is your tandoori-style chicken
Alternatively, cook your chicken on the BBQ! Always ensure your chicken is fully cooked (no pink meat!) before eating
Meanwhile, add the remaining natural yoghurt and mayo to a small bowl
Zest your lime[s]
Peel and finely grate (or chop) your garlic
Add the chopped garlic (don't like raw garlic? Go easy!), lime zest and a generous pinch of salt and pepper to the yoghurt – this is your lime & garlic yoghurt
Slice your cucumber in half lengthways and scrape out the seeds using a teaspoon and discard
Slice the cucumber halves finely
Top, tail and slice your radishes (as finely as you can)
Strip your coriander and mint leaves from their stalks, discard the stalks
Roughly chop the coriander and mint leaves
Squeeze your pouch[es] of cooked long grain rice to separate the grains
Tear the top corner of the pouch[es] (just a little!) and microwave for 2 min or until piping hot
Tip: If you're cooking two or more pouches, pop them in together but increase the microwave cook time accordingly
Add the cooked rice, chopped cucumber, sliced radish, your black sesame seeds and most of the chopped coriander and mint (save the rest for garnish!) to a large bowl
Squeeze the juice of the lime[s] into the bowl and season with salt and a drizzle of olive oil and give it a good mix up – this is your rice salad
Serve the tandoori-style chicken over the rice salad
Drizzle the lime & garlic yoghurt all over and garnish with the remaning chopped mint & coriander
Enjoy!
