Chicken tikka tavi

After perusing Wellfed, I found this
chicken tikka recipe that sounded really good. I stuck to his marinade recipe, for the most part, but I substituted Greek yogurt for regular. The Greek yogurt is much thicker and tangier. I used about 2/3 of the sauce to marinade the chicken overnight, then pan fried it. Once it was done, I removed the remnants of the torched sauce, and added some oil, onions, and peppers to the pan. Once they had been thoroughly cooked, I added back chunks of the chicken, and poured the remaining sauce over top. Served over rice, this was quite tasty, and it at least gave the illusion of healthfulness.

Using Greek yogurt is a great idea! I'll have to try the the next time.
