Grilled Prawns Salad

Grilled prawns salad is my second attempt at caesar salad after Chicken salad.

I was a little doubtful as to how it would turn up because it is sea food, but surprisingly, we found it better than Chicken salad!

Best part of this recipe is that, prawns are first grilled then added to salad.

Try this yummy salad and leave a feedback!

Ingredients

250 grms medium size prawns
1 onion cut into large pieces in random shape
1 red capsicum cut into large pieces
Bunch of chopped celery leaves
1/2 tsp garlic paste
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp Basil
1 tsp honey
1 1/2 tbsp caesar salad dressing cream
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt to taste

Chicken Caesar Salad


My family's all time favourite salad and I had to try it at home.
So simple yet so yummy. Who says it takes great effort to dish out mouth watering dishes! this recipe proves the theory wrong :)

Ingredients (serves 2)
250 gms boneless chicken (breast pieces)
50 gms grated parmesan cheese
1/2 cup cream (or ready made caesar dressing available in stores)
3 cups chopped lettuce 
2 cups chopped pineapple
1 chopped onion
1 tbsp Teriyaki sauce
1 tsp black pepper
2 tsp olive oil
4 garlic cloves crushed
1/4th spoon dijon mustard (optional)
salt to taste

Preparing teriyaki chicken..

Pat dry chicken pieces after washing thoroughly. In a bowl, add teriyaki sauce, olive oil,garlic,mustard sauce, black pepper and salt, mix well. Add chicken pieces to the bowl and coat them well with the misture.

If you are using oven, prepare your rotisserie by greasing it well for grilling the chicken. Pierce the chicken pieces on to the rotisserie and grill for 25 minutes in oven.

If you are not using oven and you have a grill pan, fry the pieces on the pan with little or no oil.
If you are not using oven and grill pan, just fry it on regular pan.
[Difference between grill pan and regular pan is that, grill pan has ridges on top which gives chicken a grilled look]

Grilled teriyaki chicken will look like this..Behold! the last step is remaining! Try not to finish off the chicken before the salad is even ready..  trust me, its worth the wait :)




The last step, salad..
Chop the grilled chicken to small bit size pieces.
In a big bowl, add lettuce, chopped pineapple, onion.chicken, cream (or caesar dressing) ,cheese and some salt. Mix well.

Salad is ready to savour!
