Chicken Kathi Roll Recipe
Ingredients:
For the Chicken Marinade:
- 300 grams (10.5 ounces) boneless chicken breast, diced
- 1 tablespoon oil
- ¾ to 1 teaspoon Kashmiri chili powder (adjust for heat)
- ¾ teaspoon garam masala
- ½ teaspoon salt (to taste)
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon kasuri methi (optional)
For Stir-Frying:
- 1½ tablespoons oil (divided)
- ¾ cup thinly sliced onions
- 1 cup thinly sliced bell peppers
- Optional: 3 to 6 eggs (for egg paratha)
To Assemble:
- 3 parathas or tortillas
- ⅓ to ½ cup sliced onions
- 2 green chilies, chopped
- Lemon wedges
- 1 teaspoon chaat masala (optional)
- Red chili sauce or mint chutney
Instructions:
- Marinate the Chicken:
- In a mixing bowl, combine oil, chili powder, garam masala, salt, yogurt, lemon juice, and kasuri methi.
- Add the diced chicken and mix well. Cover and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes (or refrigerate for up to 48 hours).
- Cook the Chicken:
- Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until fully cooked and tender, about 8–10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare the Vegetables:
- In the same pan, add more oil if needed. Sauté onions and bell peppers until they are soft but still crunchy.
- Make Egg Parathas (Optional):
- If using eggs, beat them in a bowl. Cook parathas on a hot griddle, pouring a little egg mixture on one side while cooking until set.
- Assemble the Kathi Rolls:
- Place a paratha or tortilla on a plate. Add a portion of the cooked chicken in the center.
- Top with sautéed onions and bell peppers, chopped green chilies, chaat masala, and a drizzle of red chili sauce or mint chutney.
- Roll tightly and secure with toothpicks or wrap in foil.
- Serve:
