Chicken salad with a twist...

Our first feature on BCR fm (My Cook book with Mmathabo) went extremely well. Thank you for listening, catch me same time next week Friday on 104.1 fm frequency. As promised here is the recipe of the chicken salad with a twist:

You will need:

• Salad green (mixed lettuce leaves) washed in cold water and shredded
• Mixed peppers (green, red and yellow) cut in julienne style
• Onions - cut julienne style
• Cucumber
• Tomatoes
• Feta Cheese
• Deboned and de-skinned chicken breast ( cut into strips/cubes)
• Seasoning for chicken:Thyme, Paprika, salt and pepper
• 2 tbs of Olive oil
• Fresh parsley

Method:

• On a frying pan add oil, heat it up and cook seasoned chicken until brown but still soft and tender. Set aside to cool.
• Take the salad greens and form a base with them.
• Add all remaining vegetables and feta cheese, toss lightly with a salad spoon.
• Add cooled chicken on top.
• For the twist add fresh ripe slices of pineapple/mango/peaches
• Garnish with fresh parsley and add salad dressing of your choice just before serving.

Happy cooking!
