This recipe is versatile in that it can be experimented with in order to avoid boredom. Perhaps swap the apricots for raisons or the Dijon mustard for a teaspoon of curry powder?
Apricot and Almond Yoghurt Chicken
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 80g Greek yogurt
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp fresh chives, finely chopped
- 1½ tbsp dried apricots, chopped into small pieces
- 1½ tbsp chopped almonds
- ½ lettuce, finely shredded
Steps
- Step 1
To cook the chicken, fill a saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Season the chicken with freshly ground black pepper and carefully add the chicken to the water once it has begun to boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until it is fully cooked through.
- Step 2
Once cooked, place onto a chopping board and cut into bite sized pieces and allow to cool.
- Step 3
Meanwhile in a bowl add the Greek yogurt, mustard, fresh chives, apricots, and almonds and stir until fully combined.
- Step 4
Divide the shredded lettuce between the wraps/pittas evenly before adding the cooled chicken to the yoghurt and apricot mixture. Stir until the chicken is fully coated before adding to the shredded lettuce.
- Step 5
Dig in and enjoy, or pack in an air tight container ready for work – just try to wait until lunchtime!
