Chicken, Avocado and Radish Salad

This chicken with avocado and radish salad combines some of our favourite ingredients into a wonderfully tasteful and nutritious meal.

Here's the ingredients you need to serve two people;

300g free range chicken breasts (fat and skin removed)

60 g of red onion 

180 g of avocado

20 g of radishes 

100 g of mixed leaves

Marinade:

3 g of balsamic vinegar

20 g of extra virgin olive oil

3 g of wholegrain mustard

6 g of garlic (crushed and thinly sliced)

10 g of lemon juice 

15 g of white wine

1 g of black pepper

Method:

• Combine the chicken breasts and the marinade in a sealed container, if possible overnight, or for whatever time permits in advance of cooking, in a refridgerator.
• Heat a large frying pan until hot and place the marinated chicken on it, cooking for approximately 4 - 5 minutes on each side. When cooked through, remove the chicken from the heat, let it rest for 2 - 3 minutes, and slice into thin strips.
• Mix the leaves, thinly sliced red onion, and quartered radishes in a large bowl and divide between 2 plates.
• Slice the avocado into wedges and place on top of the salad. Add a squeeze of lemon juice to finish.
