  • 2 brioche buns
  • 2 chicken breasts (approx. 200g each)
  • 40g tikka masala paste
  • 100g skyr yogurt
  • 100g cucumber

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
  2. Butterfly the chicken breasts and marinate in the tikka paste and 50g of the yogurt. Leave for 20-30 mins.
  3. Once marinated, place them in the oven on a greaseproof lined baking tray for 20 mins, turning halfway.
  4. Meanwhile, make your raita. Grate the cucumber and squeeze out as much of the water as possible. Place in a bowl and mix with the remaining yogurt, garlic granules, sugar, salt, pepper, squeeze of lemon or lime and herbs of choice.
  5. Slice the red onion into thin rings and set aside.
  6. Once your chicken is ready, toast your buns and spread a healthy layer of the raita on the bottom bun and a tbsp mango chutney on the top bun.
  7. Build your burger with the chicken, red onion, lettuce and finish it off with a crushed poppadum.
  8. Pop the lid on, tuck in!
