Healthy Thai Chicken Salad
Ingredients
4 small chicken breasts
zest of 1 lime
1 tbsp. fresh lime juice
3 tbsp. coconut milk
1 tsp. honey
1/2 tsp. fish sauce
Dash of tamari
1 tsp. Sesame oil (optional)
400g. red cabbage, thinly sliced
1-2 carrots julienned
1-2 baby marrow julienned
1/2 red pepper thinly sliced
2 spring onions, chopped fine
1/4 c. fresh coriander
3 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds
Directions
Heat grill to medium-high. Season chicken cutlets with salt and pepper and grill, turning once, until just cooked through, 3 to 4 min. total.
Meanwhile, grate lime zest into small bowl and set aside. Squeeze lime juice into large bowl. Whisk in coconut milk, honey, and fish sauce, sesame oil (if using) and a dash of tamari until combined. Add red cabbage, other veggies and spring onions to dressing and toss until evenly coated.
As soon as chicken comes off grill, sprinkle with reserved lime zest. Divide chicken and slaw among plates. Sprinkle coriander over slaw and serve. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
