Instructions
- For the fish
- Mix the fish tikka marinade in a bowl and add the fish cubes. Coat evenly and let it sit in the fridge for 5 hours or overnight.
- Heat the grill and place the tikkas on greased foil. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, flipping gently midway, until you see slightly golden edges.
- Once done, sprinkle some lemon juice and chat masala. Keep aside.
- Toast the pita bread and cut it into your desired shape.
- Spread a layer of green chutney on the pita bread.
- Top with some fish tikka, onions, and salad.
- For the Mint Chutney
- Chop up the coriander and mint. In a wet spice grinder or food processor, combine all the chutney ingredients and blend. Add a little more water if required.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, marinate the fish for up to 24 hours.
- If Arctic Char is unavailable, substitute with cod, haddock, or salmon.
- To prevent the pita from becoming soggy, toast it just before assembling the bites.
