Ingredients

  • 2 cups Chickpea flour (besan)
  • 1.5 cups Water
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 pound Chicken breast
  • 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 medium Onion, diced
  • 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 tablespoon Curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
  • 1 cup Coconut milk
  • 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 medium Lime, juiced
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together chickpea flour, water, salt, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil until smooth. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.

Step 2

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease with olive oil. Pour a small ladle of batter into the center of the pan, swirl to spread evenly, forming a thin layer.

Step 3

Cook each side of the roti for 1-2 minutes until golden and cooked through. Repeat with remaining batter, stacking finished roti to keep warm.

Step 4

Dice the chicken breast into small cubes.

Step 5

In a large skillet, heat remaining olive oil over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and diced onion, sauté until translucent.

Step 6

Add the chicken pieces, stirring continuously, until browned on all sides.

Step 7

Mix in diced red bell pepper, curry powder, ground cumin, and turmeric. Cook for another 2 minutes until spices are fragrant.

Step 8

Pour in coconut milk, reduce the heat to medium, simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and sauce is slightly thickened.

Step 9

Stir in chopped cilantro, lime juice, salt, and black pepper to taste.

Step 10

Serve the chicken filling wrapped in the prepared gluten-free roti and enjoy!
