Chicken Dill Salad Baguette
Perfect for a light and satisfying meal, this chicken dill salad baguette is incredibly healthy, easy to make, and full of refreshing flavours.
Ingredients
- 1 whole baguette
- 1/2 red onion sliced
- 2 tomatoes sliced
- 2 small cucumbers cubed
- 1 chicken breast sliced
- Homemade yogurt dill sauce (see recipe link in notes below)
- 1 handful of dill chopped
- 1 pinch of salt and pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the ingredients. Slice the red onion vertically into thin slices, then slice it in half horizontally. Chop into cubes and mince it. Set aside.
- Slice the chicken breast, and season it with salt and pepper. Steam over a pot of boiling water for 12-15 mins. Check if they are fully cooked by piercing a chopstick through the meat. If it goes through, then it’s done. Set aside and let cool.
- Meanwhile, prepare the other vegetables. Thinly slice the tomatoes and chop the cucumber into small pieces. Tip: To remove the bitterness and veggie taste of cucumber, chop off the tips, then make several swirls on the cut-side until bubbly, and rinse the cucumber.
- Once the chicken breasts are cooled down, cut into small cubes.
- In a large bowl, add in minced onions, chopped cucumbers, chicken breasts, and the homemade yogurt dill sauce. Mix to combine.
- Slice the baguette in half, and pan-sear with some butter until golden brown.
- To assemble, place few pieces of romaine lettuce at the bottom, then place sliced tomatoes on top. Layer the chicken dill salad over them, and top with extra chopped dill.
- Cut the salad baguette in half, and enjoy!
