  1. Boil the boneless chicken breast in a pot of water until fully cooked.
  2. Once cooked, remove from the water and allow it to cool slightly.

  12. Flatten each dough ball into a small disc and place a spoonful of the chicken mixture in the center.
  13. Fold the edges of the dough over the filling, sealing it completely, and then gently roll it out into a round paratha.
