There's a hint of summer in every bite of this Asian-inspired poached chicken salad.
Preparation Time
20 - 30 minutes
Cooking Time
10 minutes
Ingredients (serves 4)
- 4 single chicken breast fillets
- 2 Lebanese cucumbers, halved lengthways, thinly sliced diagonally
- 1 bunch baby pak choy, leaves separated, finely shredded
- 110g (2 cups) trimmed bean sprouts
- 1 bunch fresh coriander, leaves picked
- 1 bunch fresh mint, leaves picked
- 125ml (1/2 cup) sweet chilli sauce
- 2 tbs fresh lime juice
- 1 x 100g pkt Chang's Crunchy Noodles
Method
Bring a large deep frying pan of water to the boil over high heat. Add the chicken and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 10 minutes or until cooked through. Drain. Transfer to a plate. Set aside for 10 minutes to cool slightly.
Meanwhile, combine the cucumber, baby pak choy, bean sprouts, coriander and mint in a large bowl. Whisk together the sweet chilli sauce and lime juice in a small jug.
Finely shred the chicken. Add the chicken and noodles to the cucumber mixture. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss until well combined. Serve immediately.
Notes
Time saving tip: Replace chicken breast fillets with 1 Woolworths Country Style Roast Chicken, skin and bones removed. Omit step 1.
To shred pak choy, roll up a few leaves at a time and thinly slice crossways.
Variation: Asian greens with prawns & crispy noodle salad Replace the chicken with 20 cooked prawns, peeled. Omit step 1.
