Ingredients

150 grams of chicken breast, sliced into strips (approx. 1.5cm width)

2 teaspoons (10ml) extra virgin olive oil

2 teaspoons (10ml) apple cider vinegar

2 teaspoons of finely chopped fresh oregano leaves (or 1/4 tsp dried oregano)

Pinch of sea salt

1 cup (20g) green salad leaves

1 small cucumber (100g), sliced (set aside 2 tbsp for the tzatziki)

6 (20g) pitted kalamata olives

1/4 avocado (40g), sliced

2 wooden skewers

Coconut Tzatziki

2 tablespoons (40ml) unsweetened coconut yoghurt

1 small clove of garlic, grated or minced

Zest of 1 small lemon

1 1/2 teaspoons (7.5ml) fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons of finely chopped cucumber, seeds removed (see above)

Pinch of sea salt

Method

Soak the wooden skewers in water while you make the dish.

Make the tzatziki by combining all the ingredients together in a bowl & set aside, or put into the fridge until serving.

Prepare all the salad ingredients & place in a serving bowl.

Mix together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, oregano & pinch of salt in a bowl. Add the chicken slices & marinate for a minute or 2. NOTE: like citrus, vinegar will start to cook the chicken if left too long.

Thread the chicken slices onto the wooden skewers. The chicken will fit nicely on 2 skewers without pushing it together too tightly.

Heat a small pan on medium heat, when heated add the chicken skewers and cook for approx. 4-5mins on each side, or until cooked through. If you need to, add a little extra oil to the pan before cooking.

Serve with the salad & tzatziki.
