•WW Pita bread toasted OR WW flavored couscous

DIRECTIONS

1. Heat broiler; line a broiler pan with nonstick foil. (we did ours on the grill, even better!)

2. Tomato-Cucumber Sauce: In a small bowl, combine all ingredients.

3. Basting Sauce: In a small bowl, combine all ingredients.

4. Tandoori Chicken: Thread chicken on 6-inch metal skewers. Brush with Basting Sauce and broil 4 inches from the heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Turn, baste again, and broil 2 to 3 minutes longer.
