Grilled Chicken Sandwich with Marinated Kale & Carrot Ribbons

Grilled Chicken Sandwich with Marinated Kale and Carrot Ribbons

Kale is one of the most interesting leafy vegetables. A little tough when raw, you will discover its full potential by gently massaging it with a good olive oil or by immersing it in a marinade. Very versatile, kale is perfect in smoothies, in addition to being very popular for salads and soups. Marinated kale is the star of this grilled chicken sandwich.

  3. In another bowl, combine all the ingredients for the sauce. Reserve.

Tip: Do you want to improve the nutritional value of your sandwich even more? Simply replace the mayonnaise with the same amount of plain Greek yogurt to prepare the spicy sauce. Not only will this sauce provide twice as much protein as mayonnaise, but it will also contain six times less fat!
