Insanely Fit Mole Chicken & Spicy Lemon-Lime Salad Dressing
Serves 2
- 8 oz. chicken breast, baked and chopped
- 1 large sweet white onion, sliced
- 1 large zucchini, sliced into rounds
- 1 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp raw cacao powder, or unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika and chili powder
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- salt & pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
Directions:
In a medium, non-stick pan, heat sliced onions and sliced zucchini until soft, no non-stick pan, add 1 tbsp olive oil (or add water, as needed).
Meanwhile, in a bowl, add the remaining ingredients, with chicken cut into small pieces. Season with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and chili powder, more or less to your liking.
When onions are soft, combine the onions and zucchini with chicken and yogurt mixture. Top with chopped cilantro on top.
Spicy Lemon-Lime Salad & Dressing
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- juice from 1/2 lime (about 2 tbsp)
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp nutritional yeast (optional)
- about 1/2 tsp salt & freshly ground pepper
- thinly sliced sweet white onion
- 1 tomato, chopped or sliced
- 1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced into rounds
- oven baked kabocha (optional but sooooo good)
- 3 cups mixed greens
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon and lime juice, paprika, nutritional yeast, if using, and pepper, and onions. Skip the salt for now.. Toss all to combine and let sit while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
Add in the onion, tomato, and cucumber, tossing to coat with dressing. Again, let sit.
*Tip: the longer you let the dressing sit and the onions marinade, the more fantastic it will be. Trust me. The onions become softer and soak up the flavors.
When you’re ready to eat, add the kabocha, if using, and mixed greens. Sprinkle lettuce leaves with salt and toss again.
Serve!
To make this extra spicy, add in chili powder, crushed red chili pepper flakes, or hot Sriracha sauce.
