The salad with crispy chicken is a rich and tasty main course to enjoy on hot days or for an outdoor lunch. To make this recipe, I used chicken bites (but you can use chicken breast and cut it into cubes) and breaded them with oil, Parmesan, and breadcrumbs. To make this salad nutritious and light, I cooked the chicken bites in the hot air fryer; alternatively, you can fry them in hot oil. I dressed the salad with a yogurt sauce, and the result was amazing!
