Can I use frozen strawberries? – No. I recommend only using fresh ingredients in this salad, as they will have the best texture. Thawed frozen strawberries tend to be a bit too watery to use.

Ingredients
- 4 small chicken breast fillets
- 2 cups strawberries (400 g)
- 3 cups spinach (150 g)
- 7 oz feta cheese (200 g)
Lemon pepper vinaigrette
- 4 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 3 teaspoon lemon juice
- freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Cook the chicken breast fillets. Season them with salt and pepper, and cook using your favorite method. You can bake them in the oven for 10-15 minutes, air fry on 400°F / 200°C for 10 minutes, or cook them in a pan or on a grill. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken has cooked through. Chicken is safe to eat when it has reached an internal temperature of 165°F / 75°C.
- In a bowl, combine the lemon juice, pepper and olive oil to make the lemon pepper vinaigrette. Skip this step if you are using a different dressing!
- Dice strawberries and feta cheese, and add these to a salad bowl along with spinach leaves. Add diced or sliced cooked chicken and dressing, and toss the salad before serving it.
