Ingredients:
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 large chicken breast, trimmed and sliced
small handful green beans, trimmed
1/2 avocado, halved stone removed and sliced
small handful rocket
small handful of basil, sliced finely
1-2 large lettuce leaves, torn up
1 tomato, cut into chunks
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Almond Basil Pesto
Method:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and some salt and pepper, stir. Cook until golden and just cooked through and set aside.
- Bring a medium, saucepan of water to the boil over medium-high heat. Add beans. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until just tender. Using tongs, remove beans to a colander. Refresh under cold water. Drain and allow to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl add rocket, lettuce, basil, tomato and green beans, lightly toss.
- In a small bowl/ container mix olive oil and pesto, if you need to add more olive oil to get a nice (slightly runny) consistency, do so. Add chicken to the large bowl and 1/3 of the dressing, toss thoroughly.
- Arrange salad on plates, adding the avocado slices. Drizzle the remainder, or what you like, of the pesto dressing over the salad.
Serve.
