Servings 2

Ingredients

  • For the Vinaigrette
  • 3 tbsp basil chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta
  • 1 shallot chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 small garlic clove minced
  • For the rest
  • 10 Kalamata olives pitted and halved
  • 1 ear of corn
  • 2.5 large cucumbers Blade A
  • 1 avocado insides cubed
  • 1/2 cup of walnuts
  • 2 chicken breasts grilled

Instructions

  • Place down a paper towel or two, put on the cucumber pasta, and press a paper towel on top until most of the moisture is absorbed.
  • Place a small saucepan on high heat and place in enough water to cover 1 ear of corn. Place in corn (halve first) and bring to a boil. Cook for about 3 minutes or until corn turns a brighter yellow and can pierce more easily with a fork. Place in a colander to drain and then shave off kernels in a bowl, using a knife. Set aside.
  • In a food processor, combine all ingredients and pulse until creamy. Place the "dried" cucumber pasta in a bowl, add vinaigrette and mix thoroughly to combine. Plate onto two dishes.
  • Top with the rest of the ingredients, extra dressing and enjoy.
