Tossing the chicken in a lime dressing once it’s cooked ensures that none of the bright citrus flavors get lost in the skillet. A little salt and pepper goes a long way and transforms yogurt into a delicious savory dip for warm naan. The final touch? A crunchy and refreshing sweet-tart apple relish. Cook, relax, and enjoy!
