Chicken and Mango Salad with Ginger-Orange Dressing

This vibrant chicken and mango salad offers a sophisticated blend of tropical sweetness and warming spice. The zingy dressing, made with crystallised ginger and orange juice, provides a bright citrus punch that perfectly complements the succulent sautéed chicken and peppery watercress. It is an excellent choice for those seeking a light yet satisfying meal that balances complex flavours with minimal preparation time.

As a naturally dairy-free main course, this dish is ideal for a healthy midweek dinner or a refreshing weekend lunch. The combination of colourful mango slices and paper-thin red onion makes for a beautiful presentation on the plate. For the best results, ensure the chicken rests briefly before slicing to keep the meat tender and juicy.
