-

Serves: 4 Ready in: 40 mins

FOR THE CHICKEN TIKKA 1tbsp fat-free Greek yoghurt

1tbsp tikka paste

1tbsp tomato puree

2tsp garlic granules

300g chicken breast fillets, sliced

FOR THE TIKKA MASALA SAUCE 500ml passata

75g fat-free Greek yoghurt

1tbsp tikka curry powder

1tbsp onion granules

1tbsp garlic granules

1tbsp paprika

2tsp ground turmeric

1tsp ground cinnamon

Salt

FOR THE NAANS 180g self-raising flour

1tbsp dried coriander leaf

2tsp garlic granules

1tsp baking powder

100g fat-free Greek yoghurt

Cooking oil spray

FOR THE TOPPINGS 120g mozzarella, grated

1 red pepper, deseeded and sliced

1 red onion, sliced

1 Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas 4. For the chicken tikka, combine the yoghurt, tikka paste, tomato puree and garlic granules in a bowl. Add the sliced chicken and smother in the marinade.

2 Spread the chicken on a baking tray and bake for 10-12 mins, flipping it over halfway through. If the chicken isn’t 100 per cent cooked after this time, don’t worry as it will be cooked again later on the pizza.

3 Meanwhile, make a quick tikka masala sauce by mixing all the ingredient­s together in a bowl. Season to taste with salt.

4 For the naans, place the dry ingredient­s in a bowl with a pinch of salt. Use a metal spoon to fold in the yoghurt until clumps form. Bring the mixture together with your hands to form a dough. Divide the dough into 4 equal balls and roll them out. Spray a frying pan with oil and cook one at a time, for about 3 mins on each side until golden.

5 Spread the naans with the tikka sauce, sprinkle with the mozzarella, then top with the chicken tikka, pepper and onion. Bake for 5 mins or until hot and the cheese has melted. Drizzle with raita and garnish with freshly chopped coriander, if liked.
