You could, of course, make your own chicken (or use leftovers), but I went the easy route and used rotisserie. A chicken that someone else has cooked for hours and the preparation of which doesn't negate my air conditioning. I threw this together based on a few recipes on the web, adapting for what I had on hand. Yes, that's kind of a habit. It didn't quite have as much zing as I'd hoped. Maybe lack of yogurt? Did the lame-o chick peas cancel out the flavor? If you have suggestions, hit up the comments.
