Ingredients:
- 0.5 cup plain whole milk yogurt
- 1 cup fresh cilantro (leaves and thin stems)
- Half a serrano pepper, seeded
- 1 tbsp finely chopped ginger root
- 2 tsp freshly squeezed lime juice
- 700 g skinless and boneless chicken thighs, cut into 4 cm pieces.

- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 pack of naan bread (200 g)

Preparation:
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Combine the yogurt, cilantro, serrano chili, ginger, lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. Combine half the sauce in a medium bowl with the chicken thighs and curry powder, coating the chicken evenly. Set aside the remaining sauce for serving.
- Thread the chicken onto 4 metal skewers, leaving a small space between each piece. Thread the okra onto 4 more skewers. Brush the kebabs on all sides with melted butter and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
- Grill the okra and chicken, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and cooked through, 6-8 minutes for the okra and 12-15 minutes for the chicken. Grill the naan until lightly charred, about 1 minute per side.
- Divide the naan, chicken, and okra among plates. Add tomatoes and season with salt. Serve with yogurt sauce.
