Chicken Naan- Wiches With Date And Yogurt

    This goes into my best-of-the-best file! Absolutely delicious and worth every minute of prep time. I would increase your total time to at least an hour. I think it took me closer to an hour and a half-ish to prepare both sauces, chicken and naan, then put it all together. Like I said though, it is SO worth the time!! The flavors are complex and delicious together. I wouldn't change a thing. My family ate theirs without the two sauces (which is nice to find a recipe that is so easily adaptable to everyones tastes). Personally, I LOVED it all together. The naan bread, lightly cooked in that garlic oil was a huge hit. Don't skip that part! Made for ZWT8 India. Thank you for posting this gem!
