Chicken salad with a difference
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Servings 2

Ingredients
  

For the salsa verde

  • 1 bunch flat leaf parsely leaves
  • 1 bunch mint leaves
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • ¼ cup olive oil

For the salad

  • 4 handfuls mixed green salad leaves
  • 1 cucumber peeled, deseeded and finely sliced
  • 1 cup alfalfa sprouts
  • ½ cup snow pea sprouts
  • 12 florets broccoli lightly steamed
  • ½ cup flat leaf parsley and mint leaves finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds
  • 1 tbsp pistachio nuts chopped
  • 2 chicken breasts grilled and sliced

Instructions
 

Method

  • Blend all the salsa verde ingredients together until you have the consistency you like
  • Mix all the salad ingredients except the chicken in a large bowl
  • Plate up as you wish... a bed of salad with the chicken on top and salsa drizzled over or salad on the side with the chicken placed over a spread of salsa

Top tips

  • Gently roast the seeds and nuts for some extra crunch
  • Swop the chicken for your favourite fish, a couple of sliced boiled eggs and/or grilled tofu
  • Make the salsa in advance, it keeps for 4 days in the fridge and can be used to add a little magic to any number of dishes... it is actually pretty special as a dip with the seed crackers 😌
