Ingredients

• 400 grams Chicken breast fillets
• 2 tablespoons Tandoori spice mix
• 200 grams Greek yogurt (low-fat)
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 150 grams Mixed salad leaves
• 1 small Cucumber
• 150 grams Cherry tomatoes
• 1 small Red onion
• 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander (cilantro)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine 150 grams of the Greek yogurt with the tandoori spice mix and lemon juice to create a marinade.

Step 2

Add the chicken breast fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.

Step 3

While the chicken is marinating, prepare the salad ingredients: slice the cucumber into thin rounds, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and wash the mixed salad leaves. Set these aside.

Step 4

Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, cook the marinated chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and lightly charred. Remove from heat and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.

Step 5

In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed salad leaves, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion. Toss gently with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the remaining 50 grams of Greek yogurt with 1 tablespoon of water, a pinch of salt, and finely chopped fresh coriander to create a tangy dressing.

Step 7

Plate the salad mixture, top with the warm tandoori chicken strips, and drizzle with the yogurt-coriander dressing.

Step 8

Serve immediately while the chicken is warm, and enjoy a flavorful healthy meal perfect for your Day 4 diet plan.
