Method

  1. For the Chicken, optional thin out the chicken thighs slightly (as shown in the video), then add to a large bowl with the remaining chicken ingredients. Mix well. You can do this the day before if you like.
  2. To cook the chicken, I like to skewer the thighs and bbq over hot coals until charred and juicy. Another option is to put on a sheet pan and place under a hot grill for 6-8 minutes on each side. Or just airfry until cooked through.
  3. For the tzatziki, coarsely grate the cucumber and place into a bowl. Lightly salt and set aside for 5-10 minutes. Squeeze out the excess moisture and mix with the yoghurt, chopped dill, zest and juice of a lemon and season to taste with salt.
  4. Slice up the chicken, and toast the breads. Top with the bread with tzatziki, then chicken, tomatoes, onions, guindillas and French fries.
