  • Combine the chicken with the chilli, turmeric, sea salt, lime juice and ginger garlic paste and leave to marinade.
  • Meanwhile, put the flour and eggs in separate bowls.
  • Crush the poppadoms until they are the size of panko breadcrumbs. Mix in the nigella seeds.
  • Dip the tenders in the flour then the egg then finally the crushed poppadoms.
