By shelliec

Ingredients

• 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained & blended
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
• 3 garlic cloves, finely minced
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons cream or milk
• 2-3 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded
• 6 - 6-inch pita or naan breads
• 1/2 Red Onion, thinly sliced
• 1 cup (about 4 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese
• Fresh Cilantro, chopped

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat broiler to high and place an oven rack about 4-6 inches away from broiler.
2. Heat the olive oil in a 2-quart over medium heat.
3. Add the ginger, red pepper, garlic, curry powder, and cumin. Stir constantly for about 30 seconds.
4. Add the tomatoes and salt and simmer for 3-4 minutes.
5. Stir in the cream and add additional salt and pepper to taste.
6. Stir in the chicken and heat through.
7. Top each pita or naan bread with the sauce/chicken mixture, thin slices of red onion, and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese.
8. Broil until the cheese is melted and starting to brown lightly in spots, 2-3 minutes. Don’t let them burn (they’ll cook quickly!).
9. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve immediately.
