  • Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
  • Zucchini noodles - 200 grams
  • Heavy cream - 50 ml
  • Fresh cilantro - 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Salt - to taste

Steps

  1. In a bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, tandoori masala, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
  2. Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  5. Pour in the heavy cream and stir everything together, cooking for another 2 minutes to combine the flavors.
