[[Processed meat leads to an early death|Following the recent scare over processed meat]], I felt less inclined to use [[chorizo sausages]] for our regular homemade [[pizza]] so I thought I would use fresh chicken breasts and flavour them with a pseudo-tandoori flavouring instead.  This does take quite a while to prepare, but only takes a few minutes of your time over a long period.  If you want to cheat even more, then use a packet of pre cooked tandoori chicken that most supermarkets sell.  Of course if you want to go the whole-hog, you can make everything from scratch with this [[chicken tikka|chicken tikka recipe]].


I would normally skewer and grill the chicken as the pieces are too small to sit over the grid on a grill pan but as the [[skewers]] could not be found at the last minute I pan fried the chicken instead.  Just cook on a high heat until most of the liquid cooks off.
