Tandoori Chicken Fillets with Lime and Cucumber Couscous

You can also serve this dish cold as a salad.

Preparation time : 10 minutes
Cooking time : 15 minutes
Total time : 25 minutes

Serves: 4

Ingredients

150g pot natural yogurt
2 tbsp Veeraswamy Gujarat Masala Curry Paste or Veeraswamy Medium Moglai Curry Paste
500g pack Waitrose Chicken Breast Fillets
200g couscous
300ml hot chicken stock
2 limes
1 tbsp olive oil
20g pack fresh coriander, chopped
¼ cucumber, chopped
1 ripe tomato, chopped

Method

  1. In a shallow dish, mix together the yogurt and curry paste. Deeply score each chicken breast three times, then coat in the tandoori mixture. Cook on a grill pan under a medium-hot grill for 7-8 minutes on each side until cooked through, there is no pink meat and the juices run clear.
  2. Meanwhile, place the couscous in a bowl and pour over the hot stock. Set aside for 5 minutes until the liquid has been absorbed.
  3. Grate the zest from one of the limes and squeeze out the juice. Cut the remaining lime into 4 wedges.
  4. Fluff up the couscous with a fork. Stir in the lime zest and juice, olive oil, chopped coriander, cucumber and tomato. Divide the couscous and chicken between plates. Garnish each with a lime wedge and serve with mango chutney.

A great favourite! I make double and have it cold as a packed lunch the next day.

Picked this almost at random as something new to try, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Not something I'd usually go for - I'm not a huge couscous fan but in conjunction with the lime and cucumber it was delicious. Used something called Patak's Tikka Masala medium curry paste. A heartily recommended recipe.

I am amazed My 19 year old son and 17 year old daughter loved this tandoori recipe. I cooked double the amount shown in the recipe. It all dissappeared. I marinated the chicken overnight, the flavour was delicious, and the chicken so moist. We had plain couscous. However we are going to follow the recipe for lime couscous next time. Trust 22
