I’m not sure why I’m just NOW sharing this recipe but if you follow me on Instagram, you know how often I make these! They are SO irresistible, easy, and delicious!! I usually wing it when it comes to the seasoning and they always come out great so have fun with these and add the spices you like, but do not skip or replace the Swad Tandoori masala with anything else 🙂
I usually serve these kathi rolls with my Cilantro Jalapeño Sauce but this time I decided to whip up a zesty cilantro and mint chutney which really brightens this dish up and works well against the smokiness of the chicken. You could also use a ready-made spread/dressing of your choice if you want to spend less time in the kitchen! I also prefer to use flaky frozen parathas from the Asian grocery store like these Kawan Parathas but if you can make that roti round or know how to make paratha yourself, totally go for it!! In my opinion, the paratha holds up a lot better and sturdier to the sauciness of the chicken and chutney versus a thinner roti.
Hope you guys enjoy this recipe! 🙂
Happy Eating!

This looks delicious! Do you have any thoughts on what chicken can be substituted with for my veggie friends?
Hey! Most People use Paneer as the chicken substitute. I love veggies like mushrooms and zucchini with bell peppers for something like this!
Looks so good! What brand of roti or paratha did you use?
Hey! I use a brand called Kawan from the Indian Grocery Store.
Is there garlic cloves in the chutney?
Yes there is! Thanks for pointing that out, I’ve added it into my recipe instructions 🙂
