Salad with Chicken, Orange and Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Salad with Chicken, Orange and Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Servings:

Ingredients

  • 2 oranges
  • 400 g chicken breast fillet (e.g. tenderloins)
  • 50 g arugula
  • 50 g walnuts
  • 6 pieces of sun-dried tomatoes

Sauce

  • 4 tablespoons orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon dijon mustard

Preparation

  1. Peel the oranges and then cut them into segments (using a sharp knife to cut out the flesh between the membranes). Squeeze the juice from the orange scraps and keep it for the sauce (about 4 - 5 tablespoons).
  2. To the orange juice add the rest of the sauce ingredients: olive oil, honey and mustard, then season with salt and pepper.
  3. Cut the chicken fillet into 4 smaller pieces (keep the tenderloins whole). Season with salt and pepper and place on a hot pan with olive oil. Fry for about 4 minutes on each side. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of sauce and, over lower heat, fry for another half minute on each side. Set aside on a plate. Use the remaining sauce to drizzle over the salad.
  4. Rinse the arugula in a sieve, dry it and place in salad bowls.
  5. Lightly toast the nuts in a pan, chop coarsely.
  6. Remove the sun-dried tomatoes from the oil and cut into thin strips.
  7. On the arugula place the chopped chicken, orange segments, nuts and sun-dried tomatoes, drizzle with the remaining sauce.
