Ingredients
- 100g chicken breast, roasted
- 84g beetroot, boiled
- 1 small mandarin
- 90g curly kale
- 30g feta cheese, reduced fat
- 1 tsp olive oil, extra virgin
- ½ tsp white wine vinegar
- ¼ lemon, juiced
- ½ tsp wholegrain mustard
- 1 tsp pumpkin seeds
- salt
- black pepper
Method
- You can either buy a pre-roasted chicken breast for this dish, or use any leftover roast chicken you have.
- Shred or chop the chicken into bitesize chunks, dice the beetroot. Peel the mandarin (you can use a clementine instead if you'd like), using a small sharp knife slice into each segment at the edges to the centre to release the 'peeled' segments.
- Pull the leaves from the stems of the kale and arrange on a plate. Top with the chicken, beetroot, mandarin segments and crumble the feta over the top.
- To make the dressing combine the oil, vinegar, lemon juice and wholegrain mustard with a pinch each of salt and black pepper. Mix well and drizzle over the salad.
- Sprinkle on the pumpkin seeds and serve.
