Servings: 4
Ingredients
For the Chicken:
- 1 lb ButcherBox Chicken Breast
- 1 tbsp ButcherBox Anything Seasoning
- 1 tbsp olive oil
For the Salad Base:
- 1/2 small cabbage diced
- 1 mini cucumber diced
- 2 celery stalks diced
- 1/2 green bell pepper diced
- 3 scallions diced (whites & greens separated)
For the Green Goddess Dressing:
- 2 cups spinach
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 lemons juiced
- 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp hemp seeds
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
Preparation:
- Pat dry the chicken breast and season both sides with ButcherBox Anything Seasoning.
- Dice the cabbage, cucumber, celery, green bell pepper, scallions, and chives.
- In a blender, combine spinach, garlic, lemon juice, nutritional yeast, rice vinegar, hemp seeds, salt, pepper, scallion whites, and half the chives. Blend until smooth, slowly adding olive oil for a creamy texture.
How to Cook:
- Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Sear the chicken for 2-3 minutes per side, then cover, lower the heat, and cook for another 10 minutes (or until fully cooked). Let it rest before shredding with forks.
- In a large bowl, mix the diced cabbage, cucumber, celery, green pepper, scallion greens, remaining chives, and shredded chicken. Pour the green goddess dressing over the top and toss to coat evenly.
- Serve on toasted bread for a sandwich or enjoy as a dip with tortilla chips!
