This bowl has it all! The crunch of the tomato cucumber salad, the thin slips of bitey red onion, the golden crisped air fryer chicken cut into tender little strips, a big pile of perfectly chewy Banza, and a dollop of tangy calabrian chile sauce on top.
Ingredients:
Tomato Cucumber Salad.
- 1 English cucumber, cut into chunks (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, cut into halves (about 1 1/2 cups)
- a small chunk of red onion, thinly sliced on a mandoline
- a small bundle of parsley, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Calabrian Chile Sauce.
- 1/4 cup mayo
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 2–3 individual Calabrian chiles, stems discarded, smashed / minced (I use a jarred variety)
- 1 clove garlic, grated
- a splash of castelvetrano olive brine (optional, see notes)
- salt to taste
The Rest.
- For protein, I use a batch of this ridiculously good Air Fryer Chicken(For a vegetarian alternative, this Air Fryer Tofu works beautifully too!)
- For a carb, I love the Banza Rice Mix for this – it doesn’t really make sense but I enjoyed the tomato chipotle variety!
