Spicy Chicken Caesar Salad (serves 2)


Dressing 2 PP

100g extra light mayonnaise
juice of ½ a lemon
1 clove of garlic (I use more as I love garlic)

75 ml water
fresh ground black pepper

Salad
2 chicken breasts ( 4 PP each)

1 dessertspoon Cajun spice
1 large or 2 small cos/romaine lettuce [500g]

Other salad vegetables if you like!

20g shaved or grated fresh parmesan 4PP (optional)

Spray oil




Method

For the dressing, place all the dressing ingredients in a blender and blitz till smooth [leave for a few hours in the fridge to allow the flavours to infuse].


Cut the chicken into strips and sprinkle with the spice, lay the pieces out on a spray oiled or non-stick baking sheet and place in the oven for 15 mins [check the thickest piece to make sure they are cooked through].


Cut, wash and spin the lettuce & veg and place in a large bowl with the dressing.


Add the warm chicken and serve - I always drizzle a little more dressing over it

Mmmm, that Chicken Salad recipe sounds amazing!
I’m following WW discovery. Do you know if there’s a way to convert a PP into a regular point or is it totally different?

 

[skinnymini2be]

Hi Selma, not sure about converting to the regular points system - I wonder if there is something on the WW website?

 

[skinnymini2be]
