Tandoori Chicken Tzatziki Pita Pockets

These Tandoori Chicken Tzatziki Pita Pockets are perfect for a quick weeknight meal or even lunch. I often whip these up ahead of time and assemble them at the last minute when I’m in a hurry. The Tzatziki will stay fresh in the fridge (in an airtight sealed container) for upwards of one week although in my house it’s usually gone in a few days. Grill a batch of the tandoori chicken a few days ahead, and it can re-purposed for other dishes as well as this one. Make-ahead dishes are my favorite, time is very precious and unpredictable due to the baby, therefore make-ahead meals are definitely a lifesaver when those hunger pangs hit. I find that the Tandoori Chicken and Tzatziki complement each other very well, the cucumber and onion garnish gives the dish a welcome freshness and sumac closes the dish out with a much-needed zing! Fusion food is amazing when it works so well together, just like Indian Chinese and in this case Indian Greek. I hope you guys enjoy it!

Lip Smackin’ Chicken Francese

Chicken Francese is one dish that I always order at an Italian restaurant if it’s on the menu. I have tried for years to recreate the recipe at home but until now I just could not replicate that tantalizing buttery lemony taste. After some tweaking here and there I believe we have a winner! I had my sister in law (who by the way is Italian) try it and she approved as well!
