Chicken & Broccoli Salad (LC)
Ingredients
- 200g broccoli, cut into florets
- ½ tsp olive oil
- Black pepper, for seasoning
- 12 cherry tomatoes, halved
- ½ large red onion (1 small), chopped
- 2 tbsp full-fat Greek yoghurt
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Squeeze of lemon juice (optional)
- 1 tsp dried Italian herbs
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- Large handful of salad leaves
- 60g Parmesan cheese, grated
- Approx 200g roast/cooked chicken, shredded or diced
Instructions
Add the broccoli to an air fryer basket and drizzle over the olive oil. Season with black pepper and cook at 180°C for 8-10 minutes or until tender. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, add the cooked broccoli, cherry tomatoes and red onion.
In a separate small bowl, mix together the Greek yoghurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice (if using), dried Italian herbs, garlic powder, onion powder and a pinch of black pepper. Taste test and add more seasoning if required.
Pour the dressing over the vegetables and mix well to combine.
To serve, place the salad leaves in a large bowl, add the dressed vegetables, sprinkle over the Parmesan cheese, then top with the chicken.
Note - This salad tastes even better after resting in the fridge. Store the dressed vegetables separately in the fridge for up to 3 days and serve with the salad and chicken when needed.
