5 Minute Chicken Kale Salad

Yield: 1 Serving

Total Time: 5 minutes

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

• 1½ cups pre-washed and cut kale

• 1 tsp olive oil

• 1 tsp lemon juice

• ¼ tsp each: salt & pepper, preferably sea salt and cracked black pepper

• 6 oz. white meat rotisserie chicken or pre-cooked chicken breast, cut into cubes or strips

Directions:

1. Place kale in a medium bowl.

2. Add oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

3. Massage kale with your hands for 1 minute to soften its texture and to evenly distribute the oil lemon juice mixture.

4. Reheat chicken as needed (per package directions if using frozen pre-cooked chicken breast).

5. Top kale salad with chicken and serve.

Tips:

• Look for pre-cooked chicken breast strips and cubes in the freezer aisle of the grocery store.

• If using a rotisserie chicken, remove the skin and use the chicken breast (white meat) portion, reserving the rest of the chicken for another meal.

• A great recipe for meal prep; the tough fibers of the kale soften more with time.

• For some extra spice, add ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes as a condiment.
