Ingredients:

• 2 pieces (300g) chicken breast, cut into long strips with 1cm thickness
• ½ teaspoon to ¾ teaspoon salt
• Juice of 1 medium lime
• 2 cloves of garlic, peeled and chopped finely
• 3 shallots, peeled and chopped finely
• 1-2 red chilies (add more if you like spicy taste)
• ½-1 teaspoon speculaas mix
• 2 tablespoons coconut oil

Direction:

1. Season the chicken strips with salt and lime juice.
2. Heat a large frying pan, add the oil and place each of the chicken pieces into the pan. Let it cook for 2 minutes until golden brown and turn them over. Cook for another 2 minutes.
3. Move the chicken pieces into the edge of the pan and add the garlic and shallots in the middle of the pan. Saute for 2 minutes and add the chilies and the speculaas mix. Now you can mix all the ingredients. Drizzle with sweet soya sauce. You may add 1-2 tablespoons of water if the mixture too dry.
4. Check the final seasoning. Add a touch of salt or speculaas if necessary.
5. To serve, place the salad mix on a serving plate, topped with the watermelon pieces. Sprinkle the salad with a pinch of salt and 1 teaspoon of lime juice.
