Step-by-step instructions

First Things First

Our vegetables and fruit come as fresh as can be, so please give them a quick wash before you get started.

As well as your basic cooking tools, you will need...

Fry Pan or Grill Pan
Large Bowl

Step 1

1 Cook Chicken

Pat chicken breast dry with paper towel. Sprinkle chicken with chicken spice mix, a little olive oil and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Heat oil in a fry pan over medium heat. Add chicken breast and cook 8 minutes before flipping and cooking a further 6-8 minutes until cooked through. Remove chicken from heat and set aside.

Tip! You can cook the chicken on the BBQ if you prefer - it will add a great smokiness to the dish.

Step 2

2 Prepare Salad Ingredients

Meanwhile, roughly tear baby cos leaves. Dice Lebanese cucumber and cut cherry tomatoes in half. Cut kalamata olives in half. Pick flatleaf parsley leaves (discarding stems) and roughly chop. Using a sharp knife, slice the avocado in half, around the pit. Score 1cm into the flesh in a diamond pattern, being careful not to cut through the skin.

Tip! If you're swapping the chef selected protein; adjust cooking times and method to ensure your protein is adequately cooked and safe to eat.

Step 3

3 Make Vinaigrette

In a large salad bowl combine red wine vinegar, 2 Tbsp olive oil and chopped parsley (to taste). Mix well and season.

Tip! Use extra virgin olive oil if you have it.

Step 4

4 Combine Salad & Slice Chicken

Add lettuce, tomato, olives, cucumber, avocado (use a spoon to gently scoop out diced avocado flesh) to the bowl with vinaigrette and toss well to combine. Slice chicken to your liking.

Step 5

5 You Plate It

Add fetta to salad, crumbling as you add, and divide between plates. Top with sliced chicken and any remaining parsley. Enjoy!
