Ingredients required:

  • 2.5 oz. (70g) kale, deboned & chopped
  • 1 tsp. olive oil
  • 1 lb. (450g) cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 6 slices of cooked bacon, chopped

  • ½ small red onion, finely diced
  • 5 oz. (145g) Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp. ranch seasoning
  • ½ tbsp. lemon juice
  • ½ tsp. vinegar based hot sauce, or add more to taste

Instructions:

  1. Begin by preparing the kale. Place the kale in a medium bowl and drizzle over the olive oil. Massage the oil into the kale using your hands for 3 minutes until it wilts.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, bacon, cherry tomatoes, red onion and kale. Mix everything together and set aside.
  3. Make a sauce by mixing together the Greek yogurt, ranch seasoning, lemon juice and hot sauce. Add the prepared sauce to the shredded chicken mixture in the large bowl. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly combined and coated with the sauce.
