Ingredients

100 grams of chicken breast, sliced

2 cups (40g) salad leaves of your choice

1/4 avocado (40g), sliced

1 small cucumber (100g), peeled into ribbons

1 tablespoon (10g) pepitas

1 tablespoon (10g) sunflower seeds

1 teaspoon (5ml) cold pressed coconut oil

Pinch of sea salt

Dressing

2 tablespoons (40ml) unsweetened coconut yoghurt or greek yoghurt

1 small clove of garlic, sliced

Zest of 1 small lemon

1 1/2 teaspoons (5ml) fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup (3g) fresh mint leaves

Pinch of sea salt or pink himalayan salt

Method

Place all the dressing ingredients into a *small blender & blitz until combined. If your yoghurt is thick add approx. a tablespoon of water until you reach a more fluid dressing consistency.

Arrange your salad leaves & cucumber ribbons in a bowl with your avocado.

Heat a small pan with the oil to a medium heat. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on your chicken slices & cook the chicken for a few minutes on each side until cooked through. Waiting for the pan & oil to heat will give you that nice brown colour on the chicken.

Add the chicken to the salad, top with dressing, pepitas & sunflower seeds. Enjoy!

*Note if you don’t have a small blender you can use a mortar & pestle or just mince and chop your ingredients finely and mix together for the dressing.
