This salad was a real
winner. It was a great way to use
leftover chicken schnitzel.
Ingredients:
Leftover crumbed chicken
Oil/butter
Sherry
Orzo – a cup
Stock
Fish sauce or salt
Pepper
Celery stick
Radish
Cherry tomatoes
De-seeded cucumber
Method
Heat your mixture of oil and
butter in a pan and then add your orzo and fry it off for a minute or two.
Add your stock – I used a pork
and celery one I made recently. I didn't
bother to heat the stock first – orzo is a pasta not a rice. Season with your fish sauce and pepper. (If your stock has salt in it, be careful not
to make it too salty)
Let it cook until the orzo is
tender – about 15 minutes or so and let it cool.
When still warm but not hot add
the other ingredients and serve. Check
for seasoning right at the end to see if more salt or pepper is needed.
This 'salad' got a firm seal of
approval from the better half.
This would be good for showers
