Chicken and Kale Salad with Pistachios
Chicken and Kale Salad with Pistachios is the perfect recipe to make for an easy lunch or dinner. Filled with clean and nutritious ingredients, it is both satisfying and delicious.
Ingredients
- 12-16 oz kale, chopped (about 2 bunches of kale)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 lemon, juice only
- 1/2 butternut squash, cubed
- 1/3 cup dried cherries, chopped
- 1/2 cup roasted pistachios
- 8 oz burrata cheese
- 16 oz shredded chicken
Instructions
- If you still need to roast the butternut squash, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and bake for about 40 minutes, flipping the cubes halfway through
- Prepare the kale by chopping it if you didn't buy it pre chopped
- Add the olive oil and massage the kale until all the kale has been coated in olive oil. It should also have a softer look/texture
- Drizzle over the lemon juice and mix
- I use a rotisserie chicken from the store but you can also make your own shredded chicken at home
- Add all of the toppings except the burrata cheese
- Mix until combined
- Top the salad with burrata cheese
- Enjoy!
