Tandoori chicken burger with mango chutney


Serves 4
  • 500g chicken breast fillets
  • 100g (1/3 cup) tandoori paste
  • 2 tbs Greek-style natural yoghurt
  • 1 tbs fresh lemon juice
  • Olive oil spray
  • 1 Lebanese cucumber
  • 4 large Turkish bread rolls, split, toasted
  • 80g baby spinach leaves
  • 3 ripe tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • Fresh mint leaves, to serve
  • 120g (1/3 cup) mango chutney
Minted yoghurt
  • 180g (2/3 cup) Greek-style natural yoghurt
  • 1 1/2 tbs shredded fresh mint
  1. Cut the chicken in half horizontally. Cut each piece in half lengthways.
  2. Place the tandoori paste, yoghurt and lemon juice in a shallow glass or ceramic dish and stir until well combined. Add the chicken and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 10 minutes to marinate.
  3. Preheat a barbecue grill or chargrill on medium-high. Lightly spray both sides of the chicken with olive oil spray. Add the chicken to the barbecue and cook for 2 minutes each side or until cooked through.
  4. Meanwhile, to make the minted yoghurt, combine the yoghurt and mint in a small bowl.
  5. Use a vegetable peeler to slice the cucumber lengthways into thin ribbons. Spread the minted yoghurt evenly over the base of each bread roll. Top with the spinach, tomato, cucumber, chicken and mint leaves. Top with the remaining bread and serve with the mango chutney.
