2 tbsp olive oil
2-3 free- range chicken
breasts, skinless
8-12 small lettuce leaves,
(I used gem lettuce)
Handful parsley leaves, torn
1 mango, sliced
¼ cup toasted almond slivers
¼ cup plain coconut yoghurt (or use Greek yoghurt if not dairy-free)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 tsp curry powder
¼ tsp sea salt & black pepper
¼ capsicum or chilli, diced Handful mint
1 Heat oil and fry your chicken breasts until golden and cooked through – about 5- 6 minutes each side. I find it best to remove the tenderloins first and add these once a breast is cooked on one side.
2 Rest the chicken, then slice into 1cm slices.
3 In a bowl, toss the lettuce, parsley, mango and almonds together. Arrange the mixture on a serving plate.
4 Whisk together the yoghurt, oil, vinegar and curry powder; season with salt and pepper. Pour half of the dressing over the chicken slices. Arrange the chicken on the salad and drizzle over more dressing. Scatter with capsicum and mint.
