Chicken, chickpea and avocado salad with Asian-style dressing

Chicken, chickpea and avocado salad with Asian-style dressing

If I’m going to have a salad for lunch, it’s got to be satisfying AND tasty! This salad ticks both those boxes. Both salad and dressing can be made while the chicken is cooking. Once that’s done, you just toss everything together! If you’re short on time, you could use a bought roast chicken. Remove the skin for a lower fat, lower salt meal. If you’re planning to take this for lunch, simply slice the avocado and dress the salad on the day.
