Whether you are looking for a easy, simple weeknight meal or perhaps a weekend lunch with friends, this is a great option using ingredients most people love.
The chicken is mildly spiced with chilli before barbequing. It is then sliced & served with a BLT salad containing favourite ingredients with the additional of avocado also mixed through. A buttermilk dressing is provided to accompany the salad. Served with grilled slices of sourdough bread for a really tasty, simple meal. One you will have regularly.
Being a salad, you would generally considered this meal more during the warmer months, however with the ingredients being available throughout the year, we have this meal at any time. It is such a simple meal with great flavours.

- In a large bowl, add chicken pieces, chilli flakes, salt & olive oil. Stir to mix through and coat the chicken pieces with chilli and salt.
- Grill chicken over a barbeque or grill plate until browned and cooked through. Remove from grill and keep warm.
- In a small bowl, or mason jar, add buttermilk, sour cream, chives, white wine vinegar & garlic. Stir to mix or shake ingredients to combine.
- In a large bowl add and arrange, cos lettuce leaves, tomato wedges, bacon slices & avocado.
- Drizzle with buttermilk dressing. Note: Some people prefer their salad without dressing, so if you prefer, leave the buttermilk dressing for each person to drizzle on their plate serving as required.
- Place chicken on top of salad and serve.
We like to serve this chicken salad with slices of grilled ciabatta. Simply slice the ciabatta, spray with oilive oil spray or other oil spray and place on the grill to toast both sides before serving. This adds a great toasted crunch to accompany the chicken BLT salad.
