Inspired by one of my favorite recipes from my YouTube series, Chef's K.I.S.S.™ (Keeping It Super Simple), these Mediterranean Garden Chicken Naan Toasts prove that elevated meals don't have to be complicated. Built on toasted mini naan and layered with homemade tzatziki, juicy chicken, fresh vegetables, avocado slices, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze, they're the perfect balance of fresh Mediterranean flavors. With vibrant ingredients and thoughtful presentation, this café-inspired recipe is simple to prepare, beautiful to serve, and guaranteed to impress.
Ingredients
Homemade Tzatziki Sauce
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- ½ English cucumber, grated with excess moisture removed
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
Naan Toasts
- 6 mini naan breads
- avocado oil
- 2 cups pulled rotisserie chicken
- homemade tzatziki sauce
- ½ cup diced tomatoes
- ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion
- ½ cup shaved Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1 cup baby arugula
- balsamic glaze
Directions
In a small bowl, combine all tzatziki ingredients and refrigerate until ready to use. Lightly drizzle the mini naan with avocado oil and toast under the broiler or in a toaster oven for 10–15 seconds. Spread each naan with homemade tzatziki, then top with the pulled chicken, diced tomatoes, sliced red onion, shaved Parmesan, and crumbled feta. Return to the broiler for 1–2 minutes, just until the Parmesan begins to melt and the chicken is warmed through. Remove from the oven and finish with sliced avocado, baby arugula, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Serve immediately.
Chef's K.I.S.S.™ Tip
Presentation is part of the experience. Arrange the naan toast on a large wooden serving board and garnish with fresh seasonal fruit, lemon wedges, and a small bowl of extra homemade tzatziki. Sometimes the simplest finishing touches create the most memorable meals.
