Ingredients:

  1. Leftover Chicken Tikka (see recipe below)
  2. 4 slices of sandwich bread of your choice
  3. Butter
  4. 1 large onion thinly sliced into rings
  5. Juice of 1 lime
  6. 1 tsp Chaat Masala (available at most Indian grocery stores)
  7. 4-5 tbsps Mint-Coriander Chutney

Ingredients for chutney:

  1. 1 bunch fresh mint
  2. 1 bunch fresh coriander
  3. 6-8 cloves garlic
  4. 1" piece of ginger
  5. 2 green chillies
  6. 1 tsp sugar
  7. 1/2 tsp salt

Method:

  • Cut off roots from both mint and coriander, peel garlic and ginger and remove stalks from green chillies. Wash all these ingredients thoroughly.
  • Grind these and all the remaining ingredients into a smooth paste in a food processor.
    Chill and serve.
  • Put the onion rings in a bowl and squeeze lime juice over them. Now sprinkle the chaat masala over them and mix well so the onions are fully coated.
  • Lay the slices of bread on a clean cutting board and butter. Now spread a generous layer of Mint-Coriander Chutney on the bread.
  • Chop the Chicken Tikka into slices and lay on the bread to cover the entire surface of 2 of the slices.
  • Now add onion as per preference, on top of the chicken.
  • Cover with another slice of bread.
  • Trim edges if preferred and cut in half and serve.
