Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Main course

Time 22m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3-4 (depending on size) red chicory
4 skinless boneless chicken thighs , all visible fat removed
3 tsp rapeseed oil
1 lime , juice of 1/2, the rest cut into 2 wedges
1 tsp jerk spice mix
2 tsp fresh oregano
2 tsp redcurrant jelly
2 tsp red wine vinegar
1 papaya , halved, deseeded, peeled and chopped
1 avocado , stoned, peeled and chopped
new potatoes , to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Chicory is made up of leaves attached to quite a solid base, so feel where the leaves start and slice them off. Thickly slice the base and set aside.
  • Open out the chicken thighs and put them in a bowl with 1 tsp of the oil, the lime juice, jerk seasoning and oregano. Stir well, then griddle the chicken for 10 mins, turning once. Take off the griddle, cover with a plate and leave to rest while you quickly griddle the chicory slices.
  • Meanwhile, put the redcurrant jelly, vinegar and remaining oil in a big bowl and mix well. Add the papaya and avocado, then the chicory leaves, but don't mix yet. Chop the chicken, add to the salad with the griddled chicory, then toss well. Pile on plates, squeeze over the remaining lime and serve while still warm, with new potatoes, if you like.

¼ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup plain Greek yogurt

1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, but not too soft, avocados and papayas. Unripe fruits will not yield a creamy texture and will have a tart flavor.
  • Use fresh lime juice for the dressing. Bottled lime juice does not have the same bright flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use parsley instead.
  • Serve the salad immediately after it is prepared. It will not hold up well overnight.

Conclusion:

This papaya avocado chicken salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for summer. It is also a healthy choice, as it is packed with vitamins and minerals. If you are looking for a new salad recipe to try, this one is definitely worth a try.
