Smoky Chicken Salad Recipe
Chicken salad recipes are usually healthy but they are also very bland. People who like to feel the zest of spices in their food (aka Indians) need a chicken salad recipe that is more fiery. The smoky chicken salad is perfect in this context. This healthy recipe has the hotness of peppers and also the flavour of smoked chicken.
The main feature of this chicken salad is the flavour and aroma of slightly burnt chicken. When you add plain boiled chicken to a salad recipe, it is healthy but not very delicious. But here, the boiled chicken is being coated with mild spices and then roasted on a pan. As no oil is added, smoky chicken salad is still a healthy recipe. In fact, this recipe is a treat for dieters.
