Chicken is a popular food across the globe that is cooked in multiple ways in every household, from soup preparations to fried and roasted forms. Chicken provides more protein and less fat. It is rich in many minerals such as phosphorus, magnesium, zinc, and calcium. It also has two nutrients that are perfect to relieve stress level, tryptophan and vitamin B5. Both have a soothing impact on the body and that makes this chicken and avocado salad, an excellent choice for your dinner after a stressful day.
Actually not all the fat in the chicken skin is healthy fat because it contributes calories, so if you're trying to go for a super lean dinner, it's best with skinless chicken!
Try out this delicious, super healthy salad, as a main course on any busy worknight.
Serve promptly, as the avocado will brown over time.
