Golden Chicken & Banana Medley

For my dish, I’ve paired half ripe, slightly sweet bananas with tender chicken over a bed of fresh lettuce, creating a unique contrast of flavors and textures. My plating inspiration comes from the idea of balance—combining the savoury with the sweet to evoke harmony in every bite. To plate, I place the sliced bananas neatly on one side of the plate, allowing their natural sweetness to shine. On the other side, I arrange small, bite-sized pieces of chicken over a bed of lettuce, ensuring each element is visible and inviting, keeping the presentation clean, vibrant, and modern. This dish offers a balanced combination of lean protein from the chicken, natural sugars and potassium from the bananas, and fiber and vitamins from the lettuce, making it both nutritious and refreshing.
