Preparation:

  • First, start by marinating the chicken strips – combine all the ingredients and the chicken strips in a bowl and leave in the fridge for an hour.
  • Heat a pan with olive oil, gently coat the chicken strips into the paprika and cornflour mixture and fry for a couple of minutes on each side. Leave to cool.
  • To build the salad – dress the kale with olive oil, vinegar and salt to taste and gently massage it. This will soften it and make it tastier.
  • Divide the kale between two serving plates, add the croutons, arrange the chicken on top and sprinkle the pine nuts. I have added a few squeezes of Sriracha mayo which is completely up to you.

Enjoy!
