Scrumptious Chicken Curry, Coriander & Danish Feta Salad

Submitted by Besketty

"This is something we've been making for years. If you're in Australia you can use the specific brand of ingredients otherwise find yourself a good substitute. The cooking time for the chicken will vary a little but mine usually takes about 15 - 20 min - you have to keep an eye on it and don't burn it. ***The chicken needs to be cooked in a nonstick pan on a low heat (I turn my stovetop a quarter) - if the "sauce" is sticking to the bottom you need to lower the temp*** You can vary your own amounts of lettuce, tomato, cucumber, coriander and danish feta to taste and make the salad as dense or light as you wish - the amounts below are just how we like it. It's honestly really difficult to mess this up - as long as you get the chicken right you're fine! You could add olives etc to this salad but be careful as he feta makes it salty. The flavours in this dish are scruptious!!"
