Salads and Sides
Chicken, Avocado and Bacon Salad
Served with crusty bread, this is really a meal on its own, rather than just a salad.
INGREADIENT
- 2 chicken breast fillets fat trimmed
- 3 1/2 tbs olive oil
- 3 bacon rashers cut into strips
- 2 roma tomatoes sliced
- 110 g mixed salad leaves
- 1 avocado sliced
- 1 tbs balsamic vinegar
- 50 g parmesan cheese shaved *to serve *optional
- 1 pinch salt and pepper *to taste
Direction
- Season chicken well on both sides. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a frying pan and cook the chicken over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Keep warm.
- Cook the bacon in the same pan until crisp and golden. Drain on paper towels. Gently toss the tomato, lettuce, avocado and bacon together in a bowl.
- Cut the chicken into thin, diagonal slices, then add to the salad.
- Whisk the vinegar and remaining oil together until well combined.
- Pour over salad and toss again.
- Season with salt and pepper, garnish with Parmesan cheese and serve.
