Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.

1

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 of 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 and give everything a good mix up – this is your coated chicken

Step 1
2

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

Step 2
3

Meanwhile, add the remaining natural yoghurt and mayo to a small bowl

Zest your lime[s] (try to grate lightly with a micro-plane or sharp box grater and avoid grating the white pith, as this is very bitter)

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

Step 3
4

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)

Step 4
5

Strip your coriander and mint leaves from their stalks, discard the stalks

Roughly chop the coriander and mint leaves

Step 5
6

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

Step 6
7

Add the cooked rice, sliced cucumber, sliced radish, 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

Step 7
8

Serve the tandoori-style chicken over the rice salad

Drizzle the lime & garlic yoghurt all over and garnish with the remaining chopped mint & coriander

Enjoy!
