Healthy Chicken Salad
4 servings
40 minutes
A healthy chicken salad is the embodiment of Mediterranean flavor and benefits. This Greek recipe combines tender chicken fillet baked with paprika and roasted potatoes, creating an appetizing base. The addition of fresh vegetables—carrots, celery, and sweet apples—gives the salad a crunchy texture and light sweetness. Natural yogurt serves as a refined dressing, adding a creamy note without extra calories. Pumpkin seeds complete the composition, enriching the dish with healthy fats and a pleasant nutty flavor. This salad is an ideal choice for those who appreciate taste and health in one dish.
