After the chicken has marinated, preheat your grill to medium-high heat then brush or spray the grill grates with oil. Remove the chicken from the yogurt mixture and grill for approximately 5-6 minutes per side depending on the thickness. When the internal temperature reaches 165° F. remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Carrot and Sugar Snap Pea Topping:
In a medium sized bowl whisk together the lemon juice, oil, honey, salt and pepper. Add in the carrot ribbons and sugar snap peas tossing to coat. Let them marinate while the chicken is grilling.

Top with slices of the grilled tandoori chicken, carrot ribbons and sugar snap peas. Garnish with the chopped cashews, crumbled goat cheese, cilantro and dollop any extra yogurt sauce on top. Serve immediately.
