Indian Inspired Chicken Roll Ups Recipe

My husband and I have some dear friends in India.  They told me they look forward to watching Min Dins, each week!! Isn’t it wonderful the world we live in today?  Thanks to  YouTube, and other media outlets we can stay connected no matter the miles.  This dish is for our friends, who by the way, said if I make an Indian dish they would get me 10,000 subscribers, lol.  I am keeping my promise, now here is to getting to 10,000!!  When preparing this recipe, I love to use chicken tenders since they cook up so fast, and the shape is perfect for the roll up.  It is like having your own little street meat treat at home.  You know how  much I love Trader Joe’s diced onions , believe it or not I sliced up my own in this recipe because I wanted to keep the long thin shape of the onion slices.  By using half a piece of the naan bread you will cut your carbs in half.  Last tip is make sure you sprinkle with turmeric. Not only will this give your dish an authentic taste, and beautiful color, but your body will thank you.  Enjoy.

Directions

Step 1:  Spray a pan with a little olive oil spray, and start heating up your chicken breast tenders over M/H heat.

Step 2:  To save on time slice up half a yellow onion into long thin strips while your chicken breast are cooking.  When they brown make sure to flip and keep spraying with a little olive oil to keep them nice and coated.

Step 3:  Add the onion strips to cook until onions are soft.  Sprinkle with turmeric while the onions are cooking and stir to give all a beautiful yellow color.

Step 4:  Add the full jar of roasted peppers and the chutney and stir all.  Cover and cook until done.  Once done place 1/6 of the mixture on half of a naan and roll up.

Step 5:  Enjoy!
