pesto lemon chicken salad

Breakfast

Mary's Mediterranean-inspired salad is full of good things - creamy avocado, juicy tomatoes and tender chicken in a quick pesto dressing. It's perfect for making ahead, with a quick assembly before serving.

INGREDIENT :

3 cooked chicken breasts, skinned, boned, halved horizontally and sliced into thin strips
2 large ripe avocados, peeled and sliced
½ lemon, juice only
½ cucumber
18 baby plum tomatoes, halved lengthways
4 tbsp fresh green basil pesto
6 tbsp light mayonnaise
½ lemon, juice only
salt and freshly ground black pepper
25g/1oz pine nuts, toasted
micro salad
basil leaves

RECIPE DIRECTION :

To make the dressing, put the pesto, mayonnaise and lemon juice in a large bowl, season with salt and pepper and mix to combine. Add the chicken and stir again. If possible, leave it to marinate for several hours or overnight.
Place the avocado slices in a separate bowl, pour over the lemon juice and toss so the avocado is completely coated.
Cut the cucumber in half lengthways, use a teaspoon to remove and discard the seeds and then peel using a potato peeler. Cut into crescent-shaped slices and arrange these in layers with the avocado slices, tomato halves and pesto chicken. Season with salt and pepper. (If assembling ahead, do not add salt until just before serving.)
Scatter over the toasted pine nuts, micro salad and basil leaves to finish.
