Chicken salad in teriyaki sauce
4 servings
30 minutes
Chicken salad with teriyaki sauce is a refined combination of fresh vegetables and tender chicken fillet soaked in the famous Japanese sauce. Teriyaki, with its balance of sweetness and umami, makes the chicken juicy and aromatic. Iceberg lettuce leaves give the dish a crunchy texture, while avocado adds creamy tenderness. Sweet peppers and tomatoes bring juiciness, and cucumbers add a light freshness. This salad not only delights the taste but is also a healthy choice for those who value nutritious eating. Legend has it that teriyaki originated as a way to marinate meat in Japanese families and has now become an integral part of world cuisine. The salad can be served as a light lunch or an accompaniment to the main dish, enjoying its harmony of flavors.
