It’s a great season for Caprese Salad- it’s always worth the wait.
Method
🍗 To prepare we roasted chicken thighs with garlic and basil. Then added cherry tomatoes for the last 15 minutes.
🍝 Cook the pasta – we used brown fusilli for the extra fibre. We took the juices from the chicken and added to flavour the past whilst cooking.
🍅We then stripped the chicken to bite size pieces to add to the cooked pasta, arranging the tomatoes as if they were rubies.
🧀 Along with mozzarella pieces and fresh torn basil. This is without a doubt Liz’s favourite herb – (closely followed by coriander).
🥬 The green and red lift the dishes appearance beautifully and finish with a balsamic vinegar glaze which adds a tang.
Top tip
✅ Keep the tomatoes and mozzarella the same size for balance.
