## Ingredients (serves 2–3)

- 2 chicken breasts, cut into strips
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cucumber, diced
- 1/4 cup corn
- HELLO Thousand Island Sauce, to dress

## How to Make Crispy Chicken Salad

1. Bread the chicken. Coat the chicken strips in flour, dip in beaten egg, then press into breadcrumbs.
2. Fry until crispy. Fry in hot vegetable oil for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Drain and slice.
3. Build the salad. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and corn.
4. Add the chicken. Arrange the crispy chicken on top while still warm.
5. Dress and serve. Drizzle generously with HELLO Thousand Island Sauce and toss gently, or serve the sauce on the side for dipping.

## Tips for the Best Chicken Salad

- Dress just before serving. This keeps the chicken crispy and the greens crisp.
- Double up as a dip. HELLO Thousand Island Sauce is also perfect with burgers, fries, and sandwiches.
- Add crunch. Croutons or toasted nuts pair wonderfully with the creamy dressing.
