Chicken recipes and bread recipes i have tried, and then there is chicken bread recipe by Shireen Anwer. Firstly It is a complete meal and secondly it is so easy and delicious that one should attempt it once atleast. Let me give you the ingredients and method below.

Ingredients:

Bread Dough

White flour 2 cups

Milk powder 2 tbsp

Oil 2 tbsp

Instant yeast 1 tsp

Warm water to make dough

salt 1/2 tsp

Castor sugar 1 tsp

Egg 1

Chicken Filling

Boneless Chicken 125 grams

Butter 1 tbsp

Onion 1 small chopped

White flour 1 tbsp heaped

Salt 1/2 tsp

Black Pepper 1/2 tsp

Garam Masala 1/2 tsp

Milk 1/2 cup

Coriander Leaves 2 tbsp

Green Chillies 2 or crushed red chilli as required

Ketchup optional

Egg for glazing

Seasame Seeds for garishing

Method

My quantity for dough is same but for chicken filling its double of the quantity given above.

Boil chicken in some water and do not put anything else.

Heat butter in a pot and add chopped onions to it. Saute for 2 minutes.

Add white flour/ maida to it.

Mix it well then close the flame when the flour is fully mixed.

Now add milk to it and season with salt, black pepper and garam masala.

Start the flame again and allow this batter to thicken.

Now add chicken, coriander leaves and green chillies to it.

Mix it all well to form the filling.

Now lets make the bread dough. First comes yeast proofing. I have warmed water and sugar, then added instant yeast to it. After 5 minutes you see bubbles forming. That shows your yeast is at its best to be used.

On the other hand lets gather maida, salt, egg and milk powder.

Pour in the yeast prepared and form a dough.

I left aside this dough for 3 hours and the expansion was like this.

Now with the help of poori maker or rolling pin make a circle like roti. Stretch from two ends to make it ovalish. Slit the upper and lower ends as shown.
