Instructions

1
  • Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. 
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the chicken to the pan and season. TIP: Notice a stronger smell from your chicken? Don’t worry, this is normal due to packaging we use to keep it fresh.
  • Fry until golden and cooked through, 8-10 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
2
  • Tear the ciabatta into roughly 2cm chunks. Pop the ciabatta onto a baking tray in a single layer. Drizzle with oil, season and toss to coat. Bake the croutons, 8-10 mins, then remove from the oven and set aside.
  • Trim the baby gem, separate the leaves, then tear into bite-sized pieces. Cut the tomato into 1cm chunks. Pick the mint leaves from their stalks and roughly chop (discard the stalks). Trim the cucumber, then cut into small 1cm pieces. Halve the lime.
3
  • In a large salad bowl, combine the lime juice with the sugar and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry). Season. Stir the tomatoes into the dressing and set aside.
  • Crush the peanuts in the unopened sachet using a rolling pin.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, add the ketjap manis and honey (see pantry) to the pan. Tosss to coat the chicken evenly in the sauce. Remove the pan from the heat. 
4
  • When everything's ready, add the baby gem, tomato, cucumber, mint and croutons to the bowl with the dressing. Toss well to coat evenly. 
  • Divide the salad between bowls and top with the cooked chicken. 
  • Drizzle over the sriracha and mayonnaise (see pantry). Scatter over the peanuts to finish.
  • Enjoy!
