Chicken

  • 1 pack tandoori chicken tenders

Salsa

  • 1 telegraph cucumber, diced

Rice

  • 2 packs pilau rice

To Serve

Steps

  1. Before you start, preheat oven to high grill or preheat BBQ to medium-high (if using).
  2. Cook chicken. Toss chicken with a drizzle of oil on a lined oven tray and season. Lay out flat and grill (on middle-upper oven rack) for 3 minutes. Turn and cook for 5 more minutes, until chicken is cooked through. Alternatively, do this on the BBQ.
  3. Meanwhile, prep salsa. In a bowl, toss cucumber, tomatoes and spring onions with a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. Season to taste.
  4. Heat rice & prep coriander. Squeeze rice in packs to separate grains. Tear top and microwave in packs for 3 minutes.
  5. Serve chicken with salsa and rice. Top with yoghurt, coriander and coconut chips.
