Leafy Chicken and Le Roulé Salad

Ingredients

Chicken breast…………………200g (cut into thin 1 inch rectangles)
Le Roulé cheese……………….100g (chopped in ¾ inch cubes)
Avocado………….………..….…1 (chopped in ¾ inch cubes)
Fresh wild rocket leaves……40g
Fresh watercress leaves….…40g
Olive oil………………………..…¼ cup
Fresh ground pepper……..…¼ tea spoon
Water…………………………......¼ cup
Salt to taste

Method
  • Heat the oil in pan. Add chicken pieces, salt and pepper to it, cover with a lid and cook for 2 min.
  • Now add the water, mix well and cover with lid to let it cook for another 6 min or until chicken is cooked but is still juice.
  • Remove the chicken from the pan and keep aside.
  • If the chicken broth collected in the pan is very watery heat it for some more time without the lid. Once satisfied with the flavours and consistency remove from heat and strain the liquid through very fine strainer and collect the broth in a bowl to use as dressing.   
  • Place the wild rocket and watercress leaves in a salad bowl. Top it with avocado, chicken pieces and le roulé cheese cubes.
  • Sprinkle some salt and drizzle the chicken broth dressing we just strained.
  • Mix well and serve.

Serves: 4
