1 English cucumber, cut into chunks (about 1 1/2 cups)

1 pint cherry tomatoes, cut into halves (about 1 1/2 cups)

a small chunk of red onion, thinly sliced on a mandoline

a small bundle of parsley, chopped (about 1/4 cup)

1 tablespoon white vinegar

2 tablespoons olive oil

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1/4 cup Greek yogurt

2–3 individual Calabrian chiles, stems discarded, smashed / minced (I use a jarred variety)

1 clove garlic, grated

a splash of castelvetrano olive brine (optional, see notes)

For protein, I use a batch of this ridiculously good Air Fryer Chicken(For a vegetarian alternative, this Air Fryer Tofu works beautifully too!)

For a carb, I love the Banza Rice Mix for this – it doesn’t really make sense but I enjoyed the tomato chipotle variety!

Toss the tomato cucumber salad ingredients together. Taste and adjust! (If you wanted to prep ahead, save the chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onion in separate containers in the fridge with no liquids added until just before serving.)

Stir up the sauce ingredients. Taste and adjust! This keeps super well in the fridge for several days.

Make the chicken and the banza (or whatever carb you like).

Assemble and serve! Gah! So good.
