Method

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

The first step is to marinate the chicken. In a large bowl, combine the sliced chicken thighs, Greek yogurt, olive oil, garlic, onions, smoked paprika, dried oregano, turmeric, and chili flakes.

This marinade works wonders. The combination not only tenderizes the chicken but also packs it with rich flavours. Let the chicken marinate for about 15 minutes.

Spread the marinated chicken onto a sheet pan in a single layer. Roast the chicken for about 20 minutes, or until the chicken is crispy and golden-brown. The yogurt and olive oil create a delicious crust that will elevate the meal and keep the chicken juicy.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove from the oven and drizzle with some hot honey,

To assemble the sandwich, sprinkle both sides of the naan breads with water and place in the residual heat of the oven for 30 seconds to 1 minute. This will make the naans more pliable and foldable.

Place a warm naan on a plate and layer on a generous portion of crispy chicken. Drizzle with chimichurri mayonnaise to bring in a spicy kick. Top everything with fresh salad leaves and add some pickled red onions.
