01
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). While it’s heating up, mix together some mayonnaise and diced chipotle pepper in a small bowl to make a spicy chipotle mayo.

Step 2
Next, lay out the pork cutlets and naan bread on separate baking sheets. Lightly sprinkle a bit of water over the naan—that helps keep it soft while it warms. Pop the pork cutlets into the oven and heat them for about 5 minutes until they're warmed through. Then, place a slice of cheese on each cutlet and let it melt in the oven for another 5 minutes.

Step 3
While the cheese is melting, warm the naan in the oven for around 5 minutes until it’s nice and soft. Once everything is ready, spread a good amount of the chipotle mayo over each piece of naan. Top with a cheesy pork cutlet, then add shredded lettuce and some sliced green onions. Fold the naan around the filling and enjoy!
Why you’ll love it
This dish combines smoky, spicy flavors with tender pork, creating a bold and satisfying meal. The soft, warm naan adds a perfect touch, making every bite delicious and comforting. It’s quick to prepare and great for those who love a bit of heat.
How to serve
Serve with a side of fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime to brighten the flavors. A cool yogurt or raita dip also balances the spice well. Pair it with a simple salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave, and warm the naan separately to keep it soft. For longer storage, freeze the cooked pork and thaw overnight before reheating.
