Mango Chicken Salad



Ingredients: 

  • 500gm chicken thighs

  • 1 can of sliced mango 

  • 1 lemon 

  • avocado

  • rocket 

  • slivered almonds

  • haloumi, sliced into thin strips

  • aioli

  • either Proper Crisps kumara chips, or a whole kumara and you can make your own! 

 


Method: 

  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper, and a dash of olive oil. Bake in the oven at 180 celsius for about 20 minutes or until cooked through. 

  • While the chicken is cooking, toast the almonds until browned. Remove from the pan and set aside. Then fry your haloumi on a medium heat until browned on either side, set aside on a plate when it's done. Drizzle with a squeeze of lemon. 

  •  Slice the avocado and the mango pieces (or you can have these as is, straight out of the can).

  • f you can't find Proper Crisps kumara chips in the supermarket, you can make your own - peel a purple kumara into long shavings or strips and fry in some olive oil; enough to make a sort of ‘deep fry’ and then season with salt and pepper when brown and crispy. 

  • If you don't make your own aioli, use a store-bought one but mix it with the remaining lemon juice until it's a drizzle consistency. 

  • Assemble the salad; rocket, top with sliced chicken, avocado, haloumi, mango and kumara crisps. Sprinkle the almonds over the salad and drizzle with the aioli. Yum!

 

I haven't used serving sizes here, as everyone's different. Just know that the mixture and combination of flavours is DELICIOUS. Let me know if you try this!
