Fruit and Chicken Salad
Say goodbye to all the boring salads that you ate so far. With this combination of chicken and fruit, not only do you have a healthy salad, but you also get the necessary protein without sacrificing any flavor. The chicken and fruit salad we are going to talk about is packed with so many nutrients. It is an amazing after-workout meal, but it can also be served as a light dinner. Anyhow, why don’t you take the regular fruit salad and the regular chicken salad, and create this amazing recipe? That being said, if you are ready, let’s start cooking.
For this chicken fruit salad, you are going to need the following ingredients. First, you will need about half a pound of chicken breast. For the fruits, you will need approximately two ounces of dates, two and a half ounces of avocado, about half a pound of watermelon, two ounces of mango cubes, one ounce of pomegranate seeds, two ounces of sun-dried tomatoes, and lastly one and a half of honey goat cheese.
To prepare this delicious chicken fruit salad, start by slicing the chicken into bite-sized cubes. Season the meat with the gyro seasoning and put it on a parchment line baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the chicken for about 15 to 20 minutes. Take the fruit you have prepared and slice them up to the size you prefer. For best mixing, lice the fruits into bite-sized cubes. Now, when your chicken is done, take it out of the oven and let it cool a bit. When cooled a bit, mix the chicken with the fruit and serve.
