2 tsp cayenne pepper
4 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Preheat a griddle. Grill the chicken, turning, for 4 minutes until cooked through and sticky. Keep warm and squeeze over the juice of the lemon.
Drizzle the breads with oil, then griddle for a minute on each side to warm through. Serve the naans or flatbreads with the chicken skewers, yogurt and warm pilau rice.
