Turn your salad on its head with Susie Burrell's go-to chicken ranch salad recipe.
"The addition of a healthy serving of carbs will keep you sustained long into the afternoon," she says. "Meaning you can say "Adios!" to that 3pm energy slump!"
Ingredients
4 slices Helga’s Lower Carb Wholemeal and Seed bread, blended into crumbs
1 tablespoon olive oil
250g chicken breast fillet, sliced
½ cup Paul Newman's ranch dressing
4 cups mixed lettuce leaves
8 radishes, sliced
1 Lebanese cucumber, sliced
2 carrots, grated
Method
1 Heat oven to 200ºC.
2 Add olive oil to breadcrumbs.
3 In a bowl, mix sliced chicken with ½ ranch dressing. Then cover chicken pieces in bread crumbs.
4 Place chicken on baking trays and cook 30-40 minutes in a moderate oven until crumbs are crispy and chicken is cooked through.
5 Combine lettuce, radishes, cucumber and carrots. Add crumbed chicken and dress with remaining ¼ cup ranch dressing.
