The following recipe 'Cheeky Chicken' is one of my favourites. It can be prepared ahead, includes fresh ginger, garlic & tumeric, only takes 12-15 mins to cook, & left-overs are ideal to use in wraps for lunch the next day.
Cheeky Chicken
450g chicken ( tenderloins, thigh, or breast- cut into strips or dice)
1 tsp grated fresh ginger (use more if desired)
1-2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 tsp chilli powder
1/2 tsp tumeric powder
1 tsp pink salt
2/3 C natural yogurt
4 Tb fresh lemon juice
1 Tb chopped fresh coriander
lettuce cups
Method:
1. Place yogurt, ginger, garlic, chilli, tumeric, salt, lemon juice & coriander in a medium bowl. Mix well.
2. Slice or dice chicken into strips or small cubes.
3. Combine chicken with yogurt mixture, place in refrigerator & marinate for 1-2 hrs.
4. Pre-heat grill. Line baking tray with foil then baking paper. Grill chicken for about 12-15 mins, turning & basting 2-3 times.
5. Serve in lettuce cups. May be accompanied with rice & or corn on the cob; or salad. Garnish with lime wedges & fresh coriander.
