Ingredients
- 500 grams Boneless chicken thighs
- 200 grams Plain yogurt
- 2 tablespoons Tandoori masala spice mix
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 Whole wheat bread slices
- 1 Cucumber, sliced
- 1 Tomato, sliced
- 1 Red onion, thinly sliced
- 15 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 15 leaves Cilantro leaves
- 100 grams Greek yogurt
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the plain yogurt, tandoori masala, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Add the boneless chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
Step 3
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken thighs for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through and nicely charred. Remove from heat and let them rest for a few minutes.
Step 4
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the mint yogurt spread by blending fresh mint leaves, cilantro leaves, and Greek yogurt in a food processor until smooth. Add salt to taste.
Step 5
Toast the whole wheat bread slices until golden brown.
Step 6
Slice the rested chicken thighs into thin strips.
Step 7
Assemble the sandwiches: Spread a generous amount of mint yogurt spread on a slice of toasted bread, add a layer of sliced chicken, followed by cucumber, tomato, and red onion slices. Top with another slice of toasted bread spread with mint yogurt.
Step 8
Repeat the process for the remaining sandwiches.
Step 9
Serve immediately or wrap tightly for a delicious lunch option.
