Chicken Chopped Salad Recipe

Here’s one for you to save – a personalised chopped salad made from all your favourite salad ingredients and the meat from a barbecue chicken. Think home made Sumo Salad! You get exactly what you want in your bowl, and nothing you don’t like. Every mouthful is bursting with flavour and healthy stuff.

Sounds amazing, right? It is!

So here’s how it works. You arrange everything for the chopped salads on some big platters like this. I’ve included some boiled eggs and bacon too. Because everything is better with bacon.

These are the salad ingredients I put out: some marinated olives (my eldest loves olives), raw mushrooms, a small tin of corn kernels, roughly chopped cucumber, quartered tomatoes, slices of tasty cheese, lumps of fetta cheese, diced beetroot, some red onion slices, bacon, raw green beans, an avocado, baby capsicums, the meat from a barbecue chicken, mixed salad leaves and some salad dressings.

You put out what you and your family like. That’s the whole point! They are personalised chopped salads, after all!

Ask the first person what they’d like in their salad and put a little bit in a bowl like so. You are making this just for them, and repeat this process one at a time until everyone is served.

Then empty the bowl onto a chopping board and grab a big knife.

Here comes the fun part! Using a rocking motion with one hand on the top of the blade, chop all the salad ingredients into smaller pieces. Mix it well as you chop too. Think of it like chopping herbs, only bigger. Scrape the bits at the sides back into the centre and chop some more.

Then put everything back into the bowl, add some dressing if you like and stir thoroughly. Serve with crusty bread.

Soo yummy!!
