Ingredients

  • 800 g Chicken thighs
  • 3 tbsp Tikka masala paste
  • 2 tbsp Greek yoghurt (For coating the chicken)
  • 2 Garlic (Cloves, for the chicken; minced)
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil (For the chicken)
  • 0.5 Red onion
  • 1 Garlic (Clove, for the courgette; minced)
  • 2 Courgettes
  • 10 g Butter
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil (For frying the courgette)
  • 5 tbsp Greek yoghurt (For the sauce)
  • 1 Lemon (Juice)
  • 1 Mint (Small handful)
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 200 g Uncooked rice
  • 1 tsp Turmeric (For the rice)
  • 1 Chicken stock cube (For the rice cooking water)

Steps

  1. 1

    Make the yoghurt sauce: combine the Greek yoghurt, lemon juice, chopped mint, and honey. Mix until combined, then set aside.

  2. 2

    Coat the chicken thighs with the tikka masala paste, Greek yoghurt, minced garlic, paprika, and olive oil, ensuring the pieces are covered.

  3. 3

    Transfer the coated chicken to a baking tray if using the oven, or place it in the air fryer basket.

  4. 4

    Cook the chicken using either method: bake in a fan oven at 200°C for 20–25 minutes, turning halfway, until cooked through and golden; or air-fry at 200°C for 12–15 minutes, shaking halfway, until cooked through and golden.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, cook the rice according to the packet instructions. Add the turmeric and chicken stock cube to the cooking water.

  6. 6

    While the chicken and rice cook, heat the butter and olive oil in a pan and add the red onion. Cook until caramelised.

  7. 7

    Add the minced garlic and courgettes to the pan. Fry until the garlic is fragrant and the courgettes are softened.

  8. 8

    Serve the chicken and garlic courgette over the turmeric rice, with the yoghurt sauce.
