HelloFresh's Herby Chicken Schnitzel & Pea Pod Salad with Creamy Pesto Dressing
Posted July 2025

This bright, green salad is bursting with freshness in every bite. With cucumber, pea pods and spinach and rocket, you'll have a salad base that perfectly complements Mediterranean seasoned pork schnitzel.
Ingredients
Chicken Schnitzel:
- 2 chicken breast schnitzels
- 1 sachet garlic & herb seasoning
- 1/2 packet panko breadcrumbs
- 1 packet mayonnaise
- Olive oil (for cooking)
Salad:
- 1/2 punnet snacking tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 lemon, cut into wedges
- 1 cucumber, sliced
- 1 packet pea pods, trimmed
- 1 bag mixed salad leaves
- 1 packet fetta cubes
Method
1. Trim and halve the pea pods. Slice the cucumber and halve the snacking tomatoes. Set aside.
2. In a shallow bowl, mix panko breadcrumbs, garlic & herb seasoning, and a pinch of salt. Spread mayonnaise over both sides of the chicken schnitzels, then press into the crumb mixture until evenly coated.
3. Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook schnitzels for 4–5 mins each side or until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
4. In a large bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, tomatoes, cucumber, pea pods, and fetta cubes. Squeeze over lemon juice, drizzle with a little olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss gently to combine.
5. Slice the chicken and serve atop the fresh salad. Optional: add an extra lemon wedge and a sprinkle of collagen to finish.
