I always start by picking some greens – lettuce or spinach
Followed by some more colour/veggies – tomato, cucumber, red onion, capsicum, carrot etc (more colour the better)
And then some protein, carbs and healthy fats – avocado is perfect on a salad!
Slice your chicken in half so it’s thin. Dip the chicken in egg wash, then breadcrumbs. I added garlic powder and paprika in the breadcrumbs. Spray with olive oil. Air fryer for 15 minutes on 180 degrees celsius.
In a large bowl, add:
- Lettuce,
- sliced Cherry tomatoes,
- cut in half Red onion,
- chopped Avocado,
- chopped Boiled eggs,
In a separate bowl, add your dressing (to taste, nothing was measured):
- Greek yoghurt
- Olive oil
- Garlic
- Dijon mustard
- Lemon juice
- Mix until well combined.
Drizzle onto salad and toss well. Serve salad into bowls or meal prep containers. Slice up cooked chicken and place on top. Enjoy!
