- ¼ cup peeled and thinly sliced cucumber

- Optional: ¼ cup stemmed cilantro leaves

1. Combine chicken, green onion and fruit. Put curry paste into a bowl, add mayonnaise and mix with the back of a spoon until blended. Stir in yogurt, lime juice and salt. Combine chicken mixture and dressing.

2. Cut each naan in half crosswise. Spoon curried chicken on 2 pieces of naan and top with cucumber slices and cilantro leaves. Top with remaining naan and serve.

Times Kitchen Notes:

* Thai red curry paste is sold in tubs or jars and can be found in the Asian section of well-stocked grocery stores. If necessary, replace with ½ teaspoon curry powder and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper.

** We used Tandoori Naan from Indian Life.
