Chicken Chaat

In Zimbabwe everyone eats chicken and everyone loves curry! This is not really a curry but a good spiced chicken that can be used as a main meal served with rice and chapatis or roti - serve as a starter, garnished with crisp lettuce leaves, sliced cucumber, raw sliced onion and wedges of lemon or with a selection of chutneys or as a snack to have with drinks - serve on cocktails sticks with a dipping sauce of your choice - or just plain - serve hot or cold!
