Main Ingredients- 2 ripe tomatoes
- 1/2 medium onion
- 3-4 stalks of green onions (scallions)
- 1 can (approx. 150g) of chicken breast (or fresh chicken breast)
Chicken Breast Sauce- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbsp mirin (sweet rice wine)
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbsp mirin (sweet rice wine)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the chicken breast. Using canned chicken breast is a convenient option; simply drain the liquid and excess oil. If you’re using fresh chicken breast, you can boil it until cooked through, then shred it. For canned chicken, drain it thoroughly in a sieve to remove all the oil and liquid.
Step 2
Next, prepare the fresh vegetables. Core the tomatoes and slice them into about 1cm thick rounds. Finely dice the onion to mellow its sharpness, and thinly slice the green onions for a fresh aroma.
Step 3
Let’s make the delicious sauce for stir-frying the chicken breast. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of mirin. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. This perfectly balanced sweet and savory sauce will enhance the chicken’s flavor wonderfully.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to stir-fry the chicken breast. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat (no oil needed). Add the drained chicken breast to the pan. Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the chicken. Stir-fry quickly for about 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the chicken, giving it a glossy finish and a delicious aroma. Be careful not to overcook, as it can become dry.
Step 5
Assemble the salad beautifully. Start by arranging the sliced tomatoes on the bottom of your serving plate. Next, layer the glossy, stir-fried chicken breast on top. Finally, sprinkle the diced onion and sliced green onions evenly over the chicken for a colorful and flavorful finish.
Step 6
Voila! Your vibrant Tomato Chicken Breast Salad is ready. This simple yet nutritious salad is a delightful way to enjoy a healthy and tasty meal. Feel free to add other fresh greens or a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar for an extra touch of flavor.
