Chic Chic Salad

The combination of chicken, bacon, chicory and garlic in this Chic Chic salad is hard to beat! This is my new go-to for lunch and dinner because it’s filling, tasty and satisfying.

What you will need:

  • 1 medium white onion
  • 4-6 chicken thighs (not breast)
  • Chicory leaves
  • Spring onions
  • Sweet red pepper
  • Bacon
  • Avocado
  • Caesar dressing
  • Salt and pepper
  • Honey
  • Mustard
  • Iceberg lettuce

For the Caesar Dressing:

  • 2tbs dijon mustard
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 black pepper
  • 1 cup of olive oil
  • 1/2 parmesan cheese

What to do:

  1. Fry the onion in ghee/ butter until soft
  2. Chop the chicken into cubes and add to the onion
  3. Once golden lower the heat and add a dessert spoon of raw honey, keep stirring so it doesn’t stick to the pan but you want to get the chicken brown and golden.
  4. Chop the iceberg lettuce and line the bowl, add finely chopped sweet red pepper
  5. Slice and dice a full avocado
  6. Drizzle a layer of homemade Caesar dressing on top of the lettuce
  7. Let the chicken cool slightly
  8. Crisp the bacon in an air fryer or pan and sprinkle it on top of the chicken.
  9. Then add spring onions and lastly grated parmesan
  10. Season as you like

For the Caesar Dressing:

  1. Place 2 Tbsp mayo, 2 tsp dijon, 2 pressed garlic cloves, 1/4 cup lemon juice 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper in the bowl of an electric food processor. (Press garlic and squeeze juice right into the food processor).
