Ingredients

3 slices of lemon

1 long green shallot/scallion

1/2 teaspoon of whole black peppercorns

1 teaspoon of sea salt

125 grams of free range chicken breast (whole piece)

2 cups of torn kale leaves, centre stems removed

1/2 teaspoon of pink himalayan salt

3 teaspoons of fresh lemon juice

1/2 small or 1/4 medium carrot (40g) grated

1/2 medium red apple (45g) diced

1 small long green shallot/scallion

Dressing

2 tablespoons of whole egg mayonnaise*

1/2 teaspoon of Dijon mustard

cracked black pepper to taste

Method

Place the shallots, peppercorns, lemons and salt into a saucepan with enough water that your chicken will be covered and bring to a boil.

Add the chicken to the saucepan and bring back to the boil. Remove the saucepan from heat, cover and sit aside for a minimum of 20 mins. Remove from the liquid and place aside to cool.

Place the kale leaves in a bowl, sprinkle with pink salt and drizzle with the lemon juice. Using your hands, massage and rub the leaves for 20-30 seconds, until softened.

Chop the chicken breast and add to the bowl with the carrot, apple and shallot.

Mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together, season with pepper and add to the bowl. toss gently until everything is coated and well combined.

Salad can be made ahead and will keep well for a day or two in the fridge.

*We love to make our own mayonnaise but if you are using store bought choose organic whole egg with no added sugar. The macros are worked on our recipe and you can find it in the Dressings and Sauces section
