Roast Chicken and Mango Salad with Yoghurt

This vibrant roast chicken and mango salad offers a refreshingly modern take on a classic savoury-sweet combination. By using shop-bought roast chicken, you can assemble this colourful dish in minutes, making it an ideal choice for a light lunch or a quick midweek dinner. The peppery rocket provides a sharp contrast to the juicy mango slices, while the mild heat from the curry-infused dressing adds a lovely depth of flavour.

As a diabetes-friendly recipe, this salad prioritises lean protein and fresh fruit, balanced by a cooling dollop of fat-free yogurt rather than a heavy mayonnaise. The addition of nigella seeds provides an aromatic crunch and an elegant finish. It is a nutritious, low-effort meal that feels indulgent while remaining perfectly balanced for a healthy lifestyle.
