Crispy Chicken Salad
Just a easy salad today. Fry 2 crispy chicken breast brown in some hot butter. You can make crispy chicken breast yourself by dipping the chicken breast in 1 beaten egg, and then dipping in cornflakes. But I did it the easy way and bought them in the supermarket. Cool down the crispy chicken breast and chop the crispy chicken breast in little pieces. Finely slice 1 grilled red pepper. Add 300g mixed lettuce into a bowl and add the crispy chicken breast pieces and the red pepper. Toss it well. Serve with a saladdressing and oven chips. Enjoy!
