Apple, beetroot & chicken salad with sesame dressing

4.0 / 5 FROM 1

An attractive summery salad packed full of colour, texture and flavour.

Ingredients

3 Chicken breasts
1 can Baby beetroot, 400g
1 Cucumber
1 Apple
1 packet Cos lettuce leaves
2 Tbsp Pumpkin seeds, lightly toasted
2 Tbsp Sesame seeds, lightly toasted

Dressing

1 Tbsp Manuka honey
¼ cup Lemon juice
2 Tbsp Sesame oil
2 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
1 Tbsp Soy sauce

Directions

  1. Place chicken in a saucepan and cover with water and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Bring to the boil and simmer until chicken is cooked through. Cool and refrigerate until required.
  2. Drain beetroot and cut into quarters. Place the dressing ingredients in a screwtop jar. Screw lid on tightly and shake to combine.
  3. Slice the cucumber into long strands, using a vegetable peeler. Discard seeds.
  4. Peel, core and finely slice the apple and chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  5. Place the lettuce leaves on a large platter and scatter apple, cucumber, beetroot and chicken over lettuce. Top with pumpkin and sesame seeds, and drizzle with dressing.

Tip: Chicken can be cooked beforehand and the salad assembled at the last minute.

      Hi RBSting, the dressing ingredients were listed above, but I've now separated them out under a separate heading so hopefully it'll be easier to follow. I hope you enjoy the salad!
