Ingredients
  

  • 14 oz of chicken tenders or 2 pieces of boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt to taste
  • Coconut sugar or brown sugar to taste
  • 2 tsp Season with Spice’s Sweet & Spicy Curry Powder
  • 2 Champagne mangos – diced
  • 1/3 red onion or 1 shallot – diced
  • Large squeezes of lemon juice
  • Season with Spice’s Sweet Ginger Sea Salt to taste
  • A handful of fresh basil or cilantro – finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp lightly toasted almond slices

For the dressing:

  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp Season with Spice’s Sweet & Spicy Curry Powder
  • 1/2 tsp honey optional

Instructions
 

  • Place the chicken tenders in a shallow baking dish, and season well with salt & sugar. Then sprinkle the Sweet & Spicy Curry Powder onto both sides of the chicken evenly (about 1 tsp per side. Use more if needed).
  • In a large skillet or grill pan, heat oil until hot. Add in the chicken tenders and cook the chicken about 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked. Transfer the cooked chicken onto a cutting board. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • In a large salad mixing bowl, whisk together extra virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Sweet & Spicy Curry Powder and honey (if using). Add in the diced mango and red onion, and toss to coat well.
  • Chop up the chicken into small bite sized pieces. Then add the chopped chicken into the salad bowl. Toss gently to coat everything with the salad dressing.
  • Squeeze in fresh lemon juice and sprinkle lightly with some Sweet Ginger Sea Salt. Add in chopped basil/cilantro. Give everything another toss.
  • When ready to serve, top it with toasted almond flakes. Enjoy the salad as is, or as a filling for tortilla wraps, or over a bed of lettuce.
