Warm Chicken & Potato Salad
Warm Chicken & Potato Salad
Sometimes the best meals are the most simple, and this warm chicken and potato salad is no exception to that rule. If you can’t find these delicious lemon and ginger chicken steaks, marinate some chicken breast fillets in a combination of lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper for at least one hour before barbecuing, chargrilling or pan-frying. Or, use your favourite marinade, the choices are endless and you can easily customise it to your tastes.
I find serving salads on large platters to be much nicer and more pleasing to the eye than using large salad bowls. It is easier to evenly spread the ingredients through the salad by layering them, and you also avoid the eternal problem of all the good stuff falling to the bottom! Use some tongs or salad servers to serve the meal onto plates and then allow everyone to help themselves to seconds.
