Serve this chunky salad with pita wedges or pita chips. Purchase pita chips or make your own by spraying pita wedges with cooking spray, sprinkling them with a little shredded Parmesan cheese, and baking them at 400° for about 10 minutes. Ingredients:
2 cups chopped cooked chicken breast (about 1 pound) |
1 1/4 cups chopped seeded cucumber |
1/2 cup matchstick-cut carrots |
1/2 cup sliced radishes |
1/3 cup chopped green onions |
1/4 cup light mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro |
1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/8 teaspoon black pepper |
4 green leaf lettuce leaves |
4 (6-inch) whole wheat pitas, each cut into 8 wedges |
Directions:
1. Combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Combine mayonnaise and next 5 ingredients (through pepper) in a small bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add mayonnaise mixture to chicken mixture; stir until combined.
2. Place 1 lettuce leaf on each of 4 plates; top each leaf with about 1 cup chicken mixture. Place 8 pita wedges on each serving.
