Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 skinless chicken breasts , cut into bitesize chunks
2 red peppers , cut into chunks
1 red onion , cut into chunks
4 flatbread or pittas
chilli sauce and shredded lettuce to serve
1 tsp turmeric
1 tbsp mild or hot curry powder
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tbsp tomato purée
150g natural yogurt , plus more to serve
1 tbsp vegetable oil , plus a little for brushing
1 garlic clove , crushed
2 tbsp lemon juice , plus wedges to serve

Steps:

  • Mix the marinade ingredients with some seasoning. Add the chunks of chicken, mix well, cover and chill. Leave to marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Soak 12 bamboo skewers in cold water - this will prevent them burning when cooking (or use metal skewers). Thread the marinated chicken onto the skewers (discard any remaining marinade), alternating with pieces of pepper and onion. Brush the skewers lightly with oil and season.
  • Heat the grill to high. Grill the kebabs for 15 minutes, turning every few minutes, until golden and lightly charred. The veg should be tender, and the chicken cooked through, so it easily slides off the skewers.
  • Warm the flatbreads in a griddle pan or dry frying pan on a medium heat until golden and toasted. Serve with the kebabs, lettuce, chilli sauce, extra yogurt and squeeze over some lemon just before eating.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

Chicken
4 garlic cloves
1 (2" piece) ginger, peeled
3 Tbsp. whole-milk plain Greek yogurt
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
1 tsp. ground coriander
½ tsp. cayenne pepper
½ tsp. ground cumin
1½ lb. skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into 1" pieces
Sumac onions
1 small red onion, halved, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp. sumac
2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
Hari chutney and assembly
Juice of 1 lime
1 green or red Thai chile, seeds removed if desired
1 garlic clove
½ cup coarsely chopped cilantro
½ cup coarsely chopped mint
½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more
1 cup sour cream
Vegetable oil (for grill)
4-6 brioche hot dog buns, split
1 English hothouse cucumber, halved lengthwise, thinly sliced on a diagonal
Special equipment:
Four to six 8" metal skewers or bamboo skewers, soaked 30 minutes

Steps:

  • Chicken
  • Smash garlic with a mortar and pestle to make a paste (you should have 1 Tbsp.) and transfer to a medium bowl. Repeat process with ginger (you should also have 1 Tbsp. You can also finely chop and then smash the garlic and ginger with the side of a chef's knife on a cutting board if you don't have a mortar and pestle.) Add yogurt, oil, salt, coriander, cayenne, and cumin to bowl and whisk to combine. Add chicken and turn to coat. Cover and let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes, or chill up to 4 hours.
  • Sumac onions
  • Toss red onion, sumac, and salt in a small bowl to coat; set aside.
  • Hari chutney and assembly
  • Purée lime juice, chile, garlic, cilantro, mint, and ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a food processor or blender until smooth and pourable. If you prefer a thinner chutney, drizzle in 1-3 Tbsp. ice water a tablespoonful at a time, processing until you reach the desired consistency. Taste and season chutney with more salt if needed. Transfer to a small bowl.
  • Place sour cream in another small bowl and add 2 Tbsp. chutney; whisk to combine. Season herbed sour cream with salt. Cover both remaining chutney and herbed sour cream separately and chill until ready to serve.
  • Prepare a grill for medium heat; oil grate. Thread chicken onto skewers, taking care not to pack it too tightly. Grill, turning once, until chicken is cooked through and charred in spots, 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a platter and slide chicken from skewers. (Alternatively, broil skewers on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, turning once, about 5 minutes per side.)
  • Spread reserved herbed sour cream on cut sides of buns. Stuff buns with chicken, cucumber slices, and reserved sumac onions and drizzle with chutney. Do ahead: Hari chutney and herbed mayo can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
