Low-calorie salad with chicken breast and citrus dressing
4 servings
20 minutes
This low-calorie salad with chicken breast and citrus dressing is a true embodiment of lightness and freshness. Inspired by European cuisine, it combines the airy texture of iceberg lettuce, the tenderness of baked chicken, and the rich tones of avocado. Cherry tomatoes add juiciness to the dish, while sesame adds a light nutty note. A spicy dressing made from rice vinegar, freshly squeezed grapefruit juice, and soy sauce gives this salad a special charm — it harmoniously highlights the flavor of each ingredient. Crispy rye crackers complete the composition by adding textural variety. An ideal choice for a light dinner or healthy snack, this salad is not only nutritious but also wonderfully refreshing.
