This is a basic chicken recipe that you can have as a starter, a filling for wraps and sandwiches, shred and use for samosa/spring roll filling, cutlets...the possibilities are endless. And the best part is you just need to marinate and cook it. No need to slice onion, tomato etc...isn't this perfect for a lazy day?
