May was a really busy month: the new studio, new work coming in, an exposition in Milan. As a consequence I overlooked the blog a bit too much.

Italian Chicken Salad

Healthy and tasty, quick and fresh, and with a distinct Italian flavor, this chicken salad recipe is perfect for your forthcoming summer dinners.

I have to apologize for the lack of new posts lately but I was tangled in many new events: prepare my new photographic studio and setting up an exhibition of some of my shots in Milan, while both very exciting and rewarding, took a good toll of my spare free time.

This recipe is my preferred method to prepare chicken when weather is becoming too hot here to eat it fully roasted from the oven. It uses locale vegetables, so I can find them fresh and crispy, so it's quite different from the usual chicken salad recipes coming from the oriental cooking tradition.

Ingredients (serves 4)
1 oz. chicken breast
½ oz. french beans
½ oz. cherry tomatoes
1 cup basil leaves
olive oil
vinegar
oregano
pepper
salt

Preparation
Crush a bit the chicken meat so to make it flatter and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Warm a tablespoon of olive oil on a frying pan, add meat and sauté until well golden. Meanwhile steam (better method) or cook in abundant water the french beans until tender, slice in half the cherry tomatoes and place over a plate together with the basil leaves. Add on top the chicken meat, sliced and drizzle with olive oil to taste, vinegar, oregano and more salt and pepper to taste.
