- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Oil
Green Goddess salad
- 1 pointed cabbage also sold as sweetheart or hispi cabbage
- 1 cucumber
- 3 spring onions
Green Goddess dressing
- 75 g spinach
- 2 spring onions
- 1/2 pot chives or a small bunch
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 avocado
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 40 g parmesan, finely grated
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- Salt
- Water
To assemble
- 4 sandwich rolls - click here for the recipe
- 4 slices cheese
- 1 handful spinach
Instructions
- Put all the dressing ingredients in a blender and blend until you have a smooth, creamy dressing. Adjust the consistency with a little water and season with salt.
- Shred the cabbage finely – it should almost be cut into small squares. Cut the cucumber into small dice and slice the spring onions. Toss everything well with the dressing and set the salad aside.
- Halve the chicken fillets horizontally (parallel to the board), so you get 2 thin, flat fillets from each piece. Season with Cajun seasoning, salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Heat a splash of oil in a frying pan and fry the chicken until golden and cooked through. Pull the meat apart into pieces.
- Warm the sandwich rolls, ideally in a panini press, with the cheese inside – then fill them with the salad, the spiced chicken and fresh spinach. Serve with the rest of the salad on the side.
