A Perfectly Balanced Salad
What's in a salad? There are so many ways to construct the perfect salad! The number one rule to remember is use ingredients that you love, that way you'll actually look forward to eating a delicious salad!
We are huge fans of sriracha and crispy chicken, so why not cook up some delicious sriracha chicken and throw it on a salad?
We kept this sriracha chicken salad balanced with a spicy chicken, a tangy dressing that pairs well with the sriracha, all over delicious greens and vegetables! Let's break each layer of this perfect salad down!
The chicken in this recipe is sriracha chicken. We use chicken breast because it's widely available, very lean, and takes on flavor really well!
If you don't have chicken breast,
feel free to use skinless chicken thighs or chicken tender cutlets! Any chicken would taste delicious!
Greek yogurt pairs so well with spicy food. It gives your mouth a break from the spice while also giving you an amazing tanginess. We just love it! We blended greek yogurt with fresh herbs, lemon, and garlic to make a delicious green goodness dressing!
If you are not a fan of green goddess dressing, feel free to choose one of these

We went with a spring mix, sliced radishes, and diced red onions as the base vegetables in this salad! The greens are buttery and the radishes and onion give the perfect crunch!
You can also choose your own toppings to go along with the crispiness of this salad! We went with creamy fresh avocado and blue cheese crumbles! YUMO.

How to Make Sriracha Chicken CRISPY
Sriracha chicken is definitely the star of the show for this salad! It is coated, cooked up, and then tossed with a sweet + spicy sriracha sauce!
- Make the sriracha sauce first and set it aside!
- Next, mix up your "breading" for the chicken and toss the chicken in an egg wash and coat it with the breading.
- Then, BEFORE tossing it in sauce brown the chicken in a skillet or cast iron pan! This is going to really crisp your chicken up!
- Once all chicken is browned, toss the chicken with the sriracha sauce until each chicken piece is coated with sriracha sauce.
Just be careful of this-->
Sometimes browning the chicken without a sauce causes some smoking! Make sure you have your kitchen fan on when cooking the chicken over the stove!
