Make chicken tikka pockets your way
- Grill or BBQ the marinated chicken (I just cook it in the oven as I don't have to watch or turn it)
- Try different curry pastes - Balti or Jalfrezi work well.
- Don't like curry? Use pesto or harissa paste.
- Add in any salad or sauce toppings you like.
- Try pitta breads instead of flatbreads

- Great for an easy summer dinner in the garden
- Also tastes great cold so leftovers could be packed for lunch next day
