Ingredients

  • 180 g Chicken breast fillet
  • 100 g Plain yogurt (Greek)
  • 150 g Cucumber
  • 80 g Basmati rice (cooked)
  • 80 g Cherry tomatoes
  • 2 g Garam masala
  • 15 ml Lemon juice
  • 2 g Salt and black pepper

Method

  1. 1

    Rinse 80g basmati rice and cook with 160ml water for 12 minutes until tender. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

  2. 2

    Grate 150g cucumber and squeeze out excess moisture. Mix with 100g Greek yogurt, 1 tsp garam masala, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.

  3. 3

    Pat 180g chicken breast dry and season with salt, pepper, and garam masala. Grill or pan-sear over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through (75°C internal temperature).

  4. 4

    While chicken cooks, halve 80g cherry tomatoes and toast in a dry pan for 3-4 minutes until blistered. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Place cooked rice in a bowl, top with sliced chicken, roasted tomatoes, and a generous dollop of raita on the side. Drizzle any pan juices over the chicken.
