Tonight we had battered chicken planks and a Greek cabbage salad.
The chicken is a copycat Long John Silvers chicken plank recipe. I think it tastes pretty close to the restaurant version. I didn’t alter the recipe at all. http://www.passionforsavings.com/copycat-long-john-silvers-chicken-planks-recipe/#_a5y_p=2483145
The Greek cabbage salad is based on one from Kalyn’s Kitchen. There are lots of great recipes on that blog. It is focused on tasty low carb recipes so if you follow a lower carb way of eating it is a great recipe resource.

I had cabbage to use up as well as part of a red onion and some feta cheese . The original recipe did not have onion. I used dried herbs because that is what I had. I made it a few hours in advance.
Greek Cabbage Salad
1/2 head of green cabbage, shredded
1/2 large red onion, sliced thin
4 T olive oil
3 T red wine vinegar
2 oz feta cheese, crumbled
1 tsp dry marjoram
1/2 tsp dry thyme
1/2 tsp dry oregano
1/8 tsp black pepper or to taste
1/8 tsp lemon pepper seasoning or to taste
Mix oil and vinegar together and pour over cabbage and onion. Toss all ingredients together. Serve immediately or refrigerate.
Makes about 4 servings
Verdict: Everyone likes the chicken. Hagbard put his chicken and cabbage salad together in pita bread and thought they made a tasty sandwich. Amethesto didn’t eat the salad. I thought the salad was tasty and super easy to make. I think it would be better with some grilled chicken rather than battered chicken.
