Chicken Tikka Pitta with Mint Yogurt

Make chicken tikka pitta with mint yogurt, from the first ingredient to the finished dish.

INGREDIENTS | Makes 1 serving
160 g Chicken breast (Weighed raw. The same piece weighed after cooking has lost water, so the protein per gram is higher and the total would come out about a quarter over.)
1 tbsp (15 g) Indian curry paste (Most of the fat in this dish is in the paste. Level the spoon.)
60 g Greek yogurt, 0% fat (Half goes in the marinade, half is mixed with mint for the sauce.)
1 pitta, about 60 g Wholemeal pitta
60 g Cucumber
30 g Red onion
A few leaves, chopped Fresh mint
A squeeze Lemon juice
3 sprays Olive oil spray (Counted at a quarter of a gram per spray, which is what the nozzle on most bottles delivers. Four sprays is 9 kcal.)
To taste Salt
Ingredient notes on the recipe page.

METHOD
1. Cut the chicken into chunks about 3 cm across and stir it through the curry paste and 30 g of the yogurt. Leave it for twenty minutes, or overnight covered in the fridge.
2. Heat the grill to its highest setting. Spread the chicken on a sprayed tray in one layer and grill for six minutes a side, until the edges have blackened in places and the thickest piece is no longer pink when cut.
3. Mix the rest of the yogurt with the mint, a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of salt. Slice the cucumber and onion thinly.
4. Warm the pitta in the toaster for a minute, split it, and fill with the cucumber, onion and chicken. Spoon the yogurt over.
