Strawberry Fields Salad
A dish bursting with sweet, tart, tangy and fresh flavours, the strawberry fields salad is one of the best I had.
Yield: 2
Ingredients:
- 1 chicken breast
- 2 slices bacon
- 1 cup strawberries sliced
- ½ cup pecans
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp maple syrup / honey / sugar
- 1 bag mixed leaves (150g)
- ½ small red onion
- ¼ cup Gorgonzola (or Feta)
- Salt & Pepper
- Olive Oil & Balsamic Vinegar Glaze
Instructions
- Rub the chicken breast with salt & pepper and grill it.
- Mix the pecan halves with the butter and sweetener of your choice and bake them in the pre-heated oven at 170°C for about 5-6 minutes, mixing them mid-time.
- Fry the bacon until crispy.
- Slice the strawberries and thinly slice the onion (julienne).
- In a large bowl, place the mixed leaves. Slice the grilled chicken and place it on top. Cut the bacon into small pieces and add it in the bowl. Add the strawberries, pecans and onion. Crumble the Gorgonzola (or Feta) over the salad, then drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar all over it.
