Ingredients
Instructions
- Start with the potatoes so they have time to crisp.
- Toss potato slices with half of the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt.
- Bake or pan-fry until golden and crisp, then set aside.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper and cook in the remaining olive oil until just done.
- Let the chicken rest briefly, then slice.
- In a large bowl, combine salad greens, tomatoes, and cucumber.
- Add warm chicken and drizzle with lemon juice.
- Finish with crispy potato slices on top and extra black pepper.
Common Mistakes
- Cutting potatoes too thick — they won’t crisp properly.
- Adding potatoes too early — keep them on top so they stay crunchy.
- Overcooking the chicken — it should stay juicy to balance the crisp elements.
