Chicken, Spinach and Paneer combined together to make exquisite and aromatic flatbread. A must for the month of Ramadan!

DIRECTIONS

SIFT flour together with the salt in a large mixing bowl. Add oil and rub in with your fingers to form a crumb. Gradually add water, stirring to form dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 5 minutes or until smooth. Place in bowl, cover with plastic wrap and set aside for 30 minutes.

HEAT 2 tsp (10 mL) ghee in a large skillet over medium heat. Add green onion and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes. Add ginger, chilies, garam masala and spinach. Stir to combine. Add chopped chicken, mint and paneer. Cook 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Season with salt to taste.

WORKING on a lightly floured surface, divide dough into 8 pieces and gently form into balls. Using a lightly floured rolling pin, roll each ball into a paratha 7” (17 cm) in diameter. Stack on a baking sheet with parchment or wax paper between each layer to prevent sticking.

PLACE 1/3 cup (80 mL) filling in the middle of four paratha. Spread out filling and place a second paratha on top. Squeeze the edges to seal.
