-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Marinade:
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cups plain nonfat yogurt
2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger root -- to 3 teaspoons
2 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper -- or to taste
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast -- (3 or 4 breasts)
To serve: -- onion slices, tomato slices, and chopped green chiles

Mix all marinade ingredients until very well blended. Pour over chicken breasts in a glass or plastic bowl and refrigerate for 1 to several hours. Remove chicken and reserve marinade. Grill chicken over medium heat until done. To make yogurt sauce, simmer reserved marinade over low heat for about 5 minutes or heat in the microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once chicken has been cooked, cut into bite-sized pieces, toss with warm yogurt sauce and wrap in naan with onion, tomato and hot peppers.

Makes 5 or 6 servings.
