This crunchy Asian chicken salad is a vibrant, texture-rich dish that makes for a satisfying lunch or light supper. Combining tender chicken breast with crisp water chestnuts, shredded carrots and sweet apple, it offers a wonderful balance of flavours. The dressing, made with creamy peanut butter and tangy rice vinegar, provides a savoury depth that complements the fresh produce without being heavy. It is a brilliant way to use up leftover roast chicken while bringing a taste of East Asian inspiration to your kitchen.
As a diabetes-friendly recipe, this salad is designed to be both nutritious and filling, focusing on lean protein and high-fibre vegetables to help maintain steady energy levels. The addition of roasted soy nuts or peanuts provides a delightful crunch and a boost of healthy fats. Serve it on its own or tucked into large lettuce leaves for a refreshing, low-carbohydrate meal that the whole family will enjoy.
