Honey-glazed chicken and beetroot salad suggestions
Honey adds sweetness and, if fried long enough, creates a luscious, sticky consistency in the beets. The remaining fried mushrooms and leaves provide texture and a plethora of vitamins and minerals to every meal. Protein is essential while you’re on the road all day, and the chicken provides a healthy dose of it. The honey may be omitted, and butter substituted for olive oil, to reduce the sweetness.
This Honey-glazed chicken, mushroom, and beetroot salad is an excellent choice for a light lunch or dinner. Deliciously crunchy and nutritious.
