A fresh and flavorful salad bowl featuring tender chicken, crunchy veggies, and a creamy peanut dressing, perfect for a quick and healthy meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • 3 cups mixed greens (spinach, romaine, or arugula)
  • 1 cup red cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup carrots, julienned or shredded
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves (optional)
  • 1/4 cup roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey (or maple syrup for vegan)
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 2–3 tbsp water (to thin the dressing)

Instructions

  1. Wash and dry your greens, then thinly slice the cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, and cucumber. Set aside.
  2. If not using pre-cooked chicken, season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, and cook in a skillet over medium heat for about 6-8 minutes per side, until fully cooked. Let cool, then shred or dice.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Gradually add water until the dressing reaches your desired consistency.
  4. Divide the mixed greens among 4 bowls. Top each bowl with shredded chicken, sliced veggies, cilantro, and chopped peanuts.
  5. Generously drizzle the peanut dressing over each salad bowl. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For meal prep, store the dressing separately to maintain the freshness of the greens. Adjust the thickness of the peanut dressing by adding water gradually.
