Curried Chicken Naan Sandwich



This is in honor of the awesome sandwich that I consumed at the Marriott Resort in St. Kitts....


Curried Chicken Naan Sandwiches

1/2 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 3 large)
1/2 c chopped green onions
1/2 c raisins (optional)
1 6-oz container of plain Greek yogurt (0% fat, please)
3/4 T curry powder
pinch of salt
4 large tomato slices
4 bibb lettuce leaves
1 sheets naan bread, halved (or 4 pita pockets)

Boil chicken breasts until cooked through.  Drain, cool, then shred each piece with a fork. In a large bowl, combine yogurt and curry powder.  Taste and add salt if desired.  Add chicken, onions, and raisins to the yogurt mixture and fold until well mixed.  Spread 1/4 of the chicken mixture on a 1/2 of naan bread.  Add lettuce and tomato and top with the other naan bread half.  Serve chilled.  


Why Greek yogurt, you ask?  It`s fat-free, full of protein, and has a thick consistency that holds mixtures like chicken salad, potato salad, and tuna salad together.  It`s the perfect healthy replacement for mayo or sour cream!
