Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 0.5 cup gluten-free plain yogurt
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon ginger
• 2 tablespoons tandoori masala
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 8 slices gluten-free bread slices
• 4 leaves green leaf lettuce
• 1 sliced tomato
• 0.5 sliced red onion
• 0.25 cup gluten-free mayonnaise

Directions

Step 1

In a bowl, combine the gluten-free yogurt, garlic (minced), ginger, tandoori masala, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.

Step 2

Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for enhanced flavor.

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 4

Place the marinated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil.

Step 5

Bake the chicken for 25 minutes or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 6

Remove the chicken from the oven, let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice it into thin strips.

Step 7

Toast the gluten-free bread slices until golden brown.

Step 8

Spread gluten-free mayonnaise on one side of each toasted bread slice.

Step 9

To assemble the sandwiches, place a lettuce leaf on four slices of bread. Top with sliced chicken, tomato slices, and red onion rings.

Step 10

Cover with the remaining bread slices, mayo side down, to form sandwiches.

Step 11

Slice each sandwich in half and serve immediately while the chicken is warm.
