Spicy Chicken with Guacamole on Roti Sandwich

Ingredients

Roti

1 cup whole wheat flour

½ teaspoon salt

½ cup warm water

extra flour for rolling and dusting

Chicken

1 bonless chicken breast

¼ cup olive oil

2 teaspoons turmeric

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon salt

The juice of one lemon

Guacamole

1 ripe avocado

1/2 red onion, minced (about 1/2 cup)

1 tablespoons cilantro leaves, finely chopped

1 tablespoon of fresh lime or lemon juice

½ teaspoon coarse salt

a dash of freshly grated black pepper

1 tomato (or ew cherry tomatoes)

few lettuce leaves

Directions

Roti

In a large mixing bowl, mix whole wheat flour and salt. Add warm water a little at a time to form a medium soft dough ball. Do not overwork the dough. Cover and let it rest for 15 minutes. Heat a skillet on medium heat. Knead the dough once and divide into golf ball size balls. Dip one ball into the flour to coat and roll it out into a thin disc. Keep dipping the rotli into the dry flour to prevent it from sticking to the rolling surface. Rub off excess flour from the rotli and place it onto the hot skillet.

Flip to the other side once you see bubbles appear on the surface. Allow it to cook for 10-15 seconds. Increase the stove heat to high, gently pick the rotli up with tongs, remove the skillet off of the flame, flip the rotli over and place onto an open flame.

The rotli should balloon up. Flip it over and cook on the other side (just a couple of seconds on each side).

Chicken

In a small bowl combine oil, lemon juice, turmeric, cayenne pepper and salt. Put chicken in freezer bag, add the mixture, close and shake it well. Do this in the morning and marinate all day in the fridge. If this is last minute try to give the chicken about an hour in the marinade.

Pre heat grill on medium high heat. Grill chicken about 10 minutes per side until inside is cooked through and juices run clear.

Cut the chicken breast into slices size that will actually fit the sandwich.

Guacamole

Cut avocado in half. Remove seed. Scoop out avocado from the peel, put in a mixing bowl. Using a fork, mash the avocado. Add the chopped onion, cilantro, lime or lemon, salt and pepper and mash some more.

Sandwich "assembly"

Take two rotis, spread a generous amount of guacamole on top of each of them.

On one add some lettuce and tomatoes. Add chicken, some more tomatoes and lettuce and finally cover with the other roti.

Cut in half (or in quarters) and serve!
