serves 4
7 Syns per serving (deduct 7 Syns if using wholemeal pitta bread as a Healthy Extra ‘b’ choice)
ready in 25 minutes (plus marinating)
What you need:
8 skinless and boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-size pieces
3 level tbsp tikka curry powder*
250g fat-free natural Greek yogurt
3 garlic cloves, crushed
4 x 60g wholemeal pitta breads
lemon wedges, to serve
For the salad:
1 cucumber, halved lengthways, deseeded and roughly chopped
200g radishes, trimmed and quartered
3 celery sticks, roughly chopped
2 little gem lettuces, shredded
100g fat-free natural Greek yogurt
25g fresh coriander, leaves roughly chopped, reserving a few whole sprigs for the kebabs
What you do:
- Put the chicken in a lidded plastic container (or a glass or stainless-steel bowl) with the curry powder, yogurt and garlic. Season with salt and stir to combine. Secure the lid on the container (or cover the bowl with cling film) and marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Preheat your grill to high. Lift the chicken out of the marinade, letting any excess drain off, then thread onto 4 metal skewers. Place on a baking tray lined with foil and grill for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway, or until the chicken is lightly charred and cooked through.
- Meanwhile, make the salad. Put the cucumber, radishes, celery and lettuces in a bowl. Mix together the yogurt and chopped coriander, season, then stir through the salad.
- Scatter the coriander sprigs over the chicken skewers. Serve with the salad and 1 pitta bread per person, and lemon wedges for squeezing over.
