Ingredients

  • 250 grams chicken fillet

For the Dressing:

  • 2 stalks fresh coriander, roughly chopped
  • Chili peppers, to taste (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken fillet with salt and black pepper. Heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan over medium heat and cook the chicken until golden brown and cooked through. Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces.

  3. Assemble the Salad: Toss your choice of salad vegetables, red bell pepper slices, and tomato pieces with the sliced chicken. Drizzle the honey dressing over the top and mix until everything is evenly coated.

  4. Serve: Enjoy the salad immediately for the best flavor and freshness.
