From the Test Kitchen

Here, chicken is marinated and roasted in a vibrant combination of creamy mayo and tomato chutney (a savory, Indian-style condiment made with tomatoes, tamarind, and more), then served with pieces of crispy toasted naan topped with punchy garlic and melty fontina cheese. A hearty side of carrots—tossed with quick-pickled mustard seeds—lends pleasantly sweet and piquant flavor to the dish.
