Ingredients

Chicken Marinade

500 g | 1lbs chicken breast or chicken tenderloins , sliced
2 cloves garlic , minced (or 2 teaspoons minced garlic)
2 teaspoons vegetable stock powder
1/4 cup | 4 tablespoons sweet chilli sauce (sugar free is fine)
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice

180 g (1.8oz) packet organic Haloumi cheese (salt reduced), cut into strips
1 punnet grape or cherry tomatoes , halved
2 bunches baby cos salad , washed and shredded
1 avocado , sliced
Salt to season

Dressing:

2 tablespoons garlic olive oil
2 tablespoons lime juice

Instructions

Whisk all chicken marinade ingredients together in a bowl until combined. Add chicken and set aside for 1-2 hours in the refrigerator (or over night for extra flavour). Alternatively, cook without marinading.
In a large frying pan/skillet, fry the marinaded chicken until browned and cooked through. Set aside and keep warm. In a separate smaller pan, fry the haloumi cheese until golden on both sides (about 1 - 2 minutes each side). While cheese is cooking, combine salad dressing ingredients in a small bowl or jug until combined. Serve chicken and Haloumi over prepared salad leaves, tomatoes and avocado slices, and drizzle with the salad dressing.
