Butter Chicken Kati Roll – Delhi Street Food

Ingredients

For the Chicken Tikka

  • 200 gMarinated Chicken (dark meat)

For the Kati Chicken Filling

  • 2 tbspRefined Oil
  • 1/4 cup, slicedGreen Bell Pepper
  • 1/2 cup, slicedOnions
  • 1/4 cupButter Chicken Sauce

For the Paratha

  • 1 ballParatha Dough
  • 2 tbspGhee (clarified butter)
  • 1 tspAll-purpose Flour

For Assembly

  • 1Egg
  • 1 tbspMayonnaise
  • 1 tbspIndian Ketchup
  • 1 tbspMint and Yogurt Green Chutney
  • 1/2 tspChaat Masala

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. 1.Prepare the Chicken Tikka

    Skewer marinated dark meat chicken pieces. Cook them in a charcoal tandoor oven, pulling out the skewer periodically to rest the chicken and redistribute heat, ensuring even cooking and juiciness. The metal skewer also helps cook the chicken from the inside out. Cook until the chicken is tender and slightly charred.

  2. 2.Sauté the Chicken Filling

    Once cooked, slice the tandoor chicken off the skewer onto a large, hot flat-top griddle (tawa). Add refined oil to the chicken and sauté it for 1-2 minutes. Then, add sliced green bell peppers and onions to the chicken on the tawa and mix well, continuing to sauté until slightly softened.

  3. 3.Prepare the Butter Chicken Sauce

    For a butter chicken kati roll, add butter chicken sauce directly to the sautéed chicken on the tawa. Mix the chicken and sauce thoroughly, allowing the sauce to cook down and caramelize slightly, creating a thick, gravy-coated chicken filling. Transfer the cooked chicken filling to a serving container.

  4. 4.Make the Paratha Dough Layers

    Take a ball of paratha dough. Flatten it into a thin sheet. Spread a layer of melted ghee and sprinkle a little all-purpose flour over it. Fold the dough repeatedly, then roll it into a cone shape. Press the cone down and coil it into a round, flat disc, creating multiple flaky layers within the dough. Repeat for desired number of parathas.

  5. 5.Cook the Paratha with Egg

    Roll out a prepared paratha dough ball into a thin, round disc. Place it on a hot, well-seasoned tawa. Add refined oil around the paratha. Cook, flipping frequently, until it puffs up and develops signature striations and golden-brown spots. Crack an egg directly onto the paratha, spread it evenly, then flip the paratha onto the egg to cook. Alternatively, pour whisked egg directly onto the tawa and place the paratha on top of it, cooking until the egg is half-cooked and slightly runny on the inside.

  6. 6.Assemble the Kati Roll

    Place the cooked paratha with the egg layer on a clean surface. Spoon a generous amount of the butter chicken filling onto the center of the paratha. Top with fresh shaved onions, a drizzle of mayonnaise, Indian ketchup, mint and yogurt green chutney, and a sprinkle of chaat masala. Carefully roll up the paratha, tucking in the sides to create a tight, portable roll. Serve immediately.
