Chicken Tandoori/Naan Sandwich

This tandoori chicken sandwich needed no simple or fancy condiment to elevate it. The chicken was very juicy, very tender and VERY tasty. Usually, I would serve this with raita, sliced onions, sliced tomato, sliced cucumber, a few spritz of fresh lime, plain yogurt, finely sliced cabbage slaw, or any other addition to moisten the sandwich, elevate the texture or the flavor. But on this sandwich, that would have been a wasted effort, since it was perfect, in every aspect, the way it was.
(If I would serve this in a restaurant, I would of course “improve” the presentation to make it seem fancier and justify a higher selling price, but since this was at “Chez Bella” (our home), I did not deem this a requirement. 🙂

P.S.
I prefer to cook the chicken bone-in and tear the meat from the bones at the table. For a less messy way, you can, of course, use boneless thighs and knife and fork 😦
P.P.S.
Because I am a huge Stones fan, for obvious reasons I almost called this sandwich “Sticky Fingers”, but then something (good sense?) advised me against it.  🙂

  1. Hi Anneli,
    I am on a meal plan to lose some weight, so I eat very little bread and other starch in the moment.
    Usually, I always have naan in my freezer or cooler, either homemade or store bought.
    Most stores carry good naan nowadays. However, if you want the excellent stuff, you still have to make it yourself or buy it fresh from your neighborhood Indian restaurant. 🙂
    Cheers !
