Chicken Tikka Masala Burritos
Directions
- 1Make the marinade: Combine yogurt, minced garlic, ginger paste, lemon juice, salt, and half of the spice mix.
- 2Marinate the chicken breast for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight.
- 3Make the masala sauce: Sauté onions until translucent, then add minced garlic, ginger paste, and tomato paste. Simmer for a minute, then add the remaining spice mix, canned tomatoes, water, and cilantro. Simmer for 10-15 minutes.
- 4Blend the masala sauce until completely smooth.
- 5Add low-fat Greek yogurt, butter, cilantro and salt to taste to the sauce, and mix well.
- 6Grill or broil the marinated chicken until charred, approximately 10 minutes. Dice the chicken into small pieces.
- 7Add the diced chicken to the masala sauce and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
- 8Mix in cooked basmati rice (cooked in chicken bone broth for extra protein and flavor, optional).
- 9Assemble the burritos: Spoon the chicken mixture onto burrito tortillas, add cilantro, roll tightly and wrap in foil.

Tips
- Marinate chicken for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
- Ideally grill chicken to get char, but broiling works too.
- Refrigerate meat/rice mixture for ~20 minutes before assembling burritos to help thicken and make rolling easier.
- Reheat instructions: wrap in a paper towel, microwave for 2 minutes, air fry at 375 for 6-8 minutes to crisp up tortilla, or pan fry
