Chicken Tikka Kebabs with Lentils (24 Aug)
|

This recipe uses the Knorr Rice Mates Chicken Tikka Curry flavour in a completely new way – uses the seasoning combined with some yoghurt to marinade your chicken fillet giving a spicy tikka sauce. Add some lentils and coriander to the rice and you now have a wonderful dish with an Asian twist.
Ingredients:
- 1 KNORR Rice Mates Chicken Tikka Curry
- 1 tin lentils, drained
- 1 bunch fresh coriander, chopped
- 175ml plain yoghurt
- 100ml water
- 500g chicken breast fillets, cut into strips
- 3 tomatoes, finely diced
- 1 bunch spring onions, chopped
- 1 chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
- 1/3 cucumber, chopped
- 8 small kebab sticks, soaked in water to prevent them from burning
- Skordalia dip, to serve
How To Make It:
- Preheat oven to 180°C.
- In a bowl mix the sachet of seasoning mix with the plain yoghurt and water until combined.
- Thread the chicken fillet strips onto the kebab sticks then pour the tikka yoghurt mix over the kebabs and allow to marinade covered, in the fridge for 20 minutes.
- Remove the rice sachet from the KNORR Rice Mates Chicken Tikka Curry box, and boil in lightly salted water until done, drain and then set aside to cool.
- Once cooled mix the cooked rice with the lentils and 3 tablespoons of chopped coriander.
- Place the kebabs in a preheated oven for 20 minutes and finish under the grill to brown.
- While the kebabs are cooking mix the tomatoes, spring onion, chilli, cucumber and remaining coriander together to make the salsa.
- Serve the kebabs on the lentil rice and top with salsa. Serve with skordalia dip, if desired.
SERVE WITH SKORDALIA DIP:
Blend together 1 cup mashed potatoes with 2 crushed garlic cloves, 2/3 cup olive oil, 2T vinegar, 1/2t lemon juice, salt and black pepper.
