Method

Preparation of Chicken Tikka

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the boneless chicken thighs, yogurt, and tikka spice mix. Ensure each piece of chicken is well coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour (or overnight for best results).

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and nicely charred. Remove from heat and allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.

Salad Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chicken is cooking, wash and prepare the vegetables. Chop the fresh spinach and iceberg lettuce, and slice the cherry tomatoes in half. Finely slice the red onion and red bell pepper, and dice the cucumber.

  2. 4

    Combine the Salad

    In a large salad bowl, add the spinach, iceberg lettuce, cherry tomatoes, red onion, red bell pepper, and cucumber. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

Dressing the Salad

  1. 5

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning according to taste.

  2. 6

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the prepared dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat the vegetables evenly. Top with the grilled chicken tikka slices.
