I created this salad to go with the African chicken recipe. I wanted something that connected to the chicken but was fresh and tangy to balance out the creamy richness of the chicken.
Ingredients:
2 - 3 cups shredded cabbage
1 - 2 red endives, chopped or shredded
1/2 cup of spiced dried mango, sliced finely
1/2 medium red onion, sliced
3 - 4 scallions, chopped
1/2 cup of fresh cilantro, chopped up
1 handful of slated roasted peanuts
4 Tblsp. olive oil
1 Tblsp. lemon juice
1 Tblsp. spiced rice vinegar (or any other vinegar you like)
1/2 tsp. dijon mustard
a pinch of salt & some ground pepper
Directions:
1. Shred, chop, slice all of your vegetables
2. Dump them all into a bowl.
3. In a separate, small bowl, mix up the olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, dijon mustard, salt & pepper into a vinaigrette.
4. Pour the vinaigrette over the veggies and toss.
5. Sprinkle with peanuts & serve.
