Please be patient, as this blog is a work in progress. I am actively searching for and adding more recipes so check back frequently and make yourself familiar with the labels/categories below on the right side of the page.

Mango Chicken Salad




6 tbsp olive oil

Juice of 1 lime
Juice of ½ lime
1 Thai red chilli, seeded and chopped
Small handful of fresh coriander
2 Small ripe mangoes
4 Chargrilled chicken breasts
150g mixed salad leaves
Salt and pepper to taste
½ cup chopped onions (optional)

1. Make the dressing by mixing together the oil, lime juice, chilli and coriander. Season and set aside.

Tip:
The chilli in this dressing is a perfect match with the sweet mango. If you prefer a milder taste, use larger red chillies.

2. Peel the mangoes and cut into slices. Slice onion into strips. Cook chicken in a lighly oiled skillet on the stove with salt, pepper and the juice from half a lime until cooked through.

3. Divide the salad between 4 plates and top with mango, onions and chicken slices. Drizzle over the dressing to serve.
