restaurant
Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 pineapple rings (fresh or canned)
  • 150g mixed salad greens (lettuce, spinach, rocket)
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 10 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cucumber, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons The Australian Vinegar Co. Lemon Myrtle Vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method

Step 1: Prepare the Dressing

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, The Australian Vinegar Co. Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Step 2: Massage the Kale

  • Place the chopped kale in a large mixing bowl.
  • Pour half of the dressing over the kale.
  • Using your hands, massage the dressing into the kale leaves for about 2-3 minutes. This will soften the kale and enhance its flavour.

Step 3: Assemble the Salad

  • Add the sliced apple, dry cranberries, chopped walnuts, crumbled feta cheese, and sunflower seeds to the bowl with the massaged kale.
  • Drizzle the remaining dressing over the salad.

Step 4: Toss and Serve

  • Toss the salad gently to combine all the ingredients and ensure everything is evenly coated with the dressing.
  • Transfer the salad to individual serving bowls or a large serving platter.
