Green salad with chicken

40 min4 serv.20 февр. 2026 г.

Description

Perfect for everyday meals. Thanks to the large amount of greens and vegetables, the salad turns out very healthy. Frozen green peas can be replaced with fresh young pea pods. You can add other vegetables if desired. Instead of chicken breast, you can use thigh fillet or turkey meat. This salad is best served immediately or dressed right before serving. Lemon juice can be substituted with wine or balsamic vinegar, and a bit of honey or sugar can be added to the dressing for extra flavor. Garnish optionally and serve.
