Chicken and pea salad

This is a great recipe if your cupboard is fairly bare. The less bare it is, the more interesting you can make the salad.

- Fry 4 free range chicken breasts with salt, thyme, origanum and a squeeze of lemon juice and slice medium thickness
- Boil 6 small potatoes and chop
- Microwave or fry a small bowl of frozen peas with 2 tsp of fresh garlic
- Chop up a small orange pepper and small red pepper
- Chop up half an onion finely and add to the above
- Chop the other half of the onion finely and fry in a dash of balsamic vinegar (you can skip this part)
- Mix together with a generous amount of Greek Yoghurt (don't add too much or else it will be too rich)
- Sprinkle with salt and some coriander (fresh leaves would also be nice)
- Serve with chutney on the side if you are feeling adventurous

Other things you could add include raisins, nuts, olive oil in stead of yoghurt and chutney, grated carrot and fresh chilli. Strange...but tasty and useful!
