For dressing:
2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar*
1 tablespoon balsmic vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh gingerroot
1 garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with 1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 whole skinless boneless chicken breast (3/4 pound), halved
1 bunch spinach (about 3/4 pound), coarse stems discarded and leaves washed well and spun dry
1 firm-ripe mango, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
2 plum tomatoes, sliced thin
2/3 cup raspberries, picked over
4 scallions, chopped fine
1/4 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped coarse
Available at specialty foods shops and some supermarkets.

Steps:

  • Make dressing:
  • In a bowl whisk together all dressing ingredients except oil. Add oil in a stream, whisking, and whisk until emulsified. (Dressing may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered.)
  • In a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag coat chicken with 3 tablespoons dressing. (Marinate chicken, covered and chilled, 2 hours.)
  • Heat an oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and grill chicken, drained, until cooked through, about 7 minutes on each side. Transfer chicken to a platter and cool. (Chicken may be made up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.)
  • Cut chicken into 1/4-inch-thick slices and in a large bowl combine with remaining ingredients. Drizzle remaining dressing over salad and toss gently to combine well.

GRILLED CHICKEN HOAGIES WITH MANGO CHUTNEY AND MELTED BRIE SERVED WITH TOMATO CUCUMBER SALAD



Grilled Chicken Hoagies with Mango Chutney and Melted Brie Served with Tomato Cucumber Salad image

Categories     Bread     Salad     Chicken     Tomato     Side     Marinate     Brie     Mango     Cucumber

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 tablespoons EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil), plus some for drizzling
1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/3 palmful
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Salt and black pepper
8 chicken breast cutlets
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (eyeball it)
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar (eyeball it)
1 shallot, finely chopped
1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
1 English or European seedless cucumber, cut in half lengthwise, then thinly sliced into half moons
4 hoagie rolls (sub rolls)
3/4 cup store-bought mango chutney
8 ounces Brie cheese, cut into thin slices
1 bunch watercress, trimmed and coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to high heat.
  • In a shallow dish, mix together 2 tablespoons of the EVOO, the thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken cutlets and coat thoroughly. Let the chicken marinate while you get the salad together and grill up the bread.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the mustard, white wine vinegar, shallots, and a little salt and pepper. In a slow, steady stream, whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons of EVOO. Add the grape tomatoes; with a fork smash some of the tomatoes against the side of the bowl so that their juices become part of the dressing. Add the sliced cucumbers and toss them to combine.
  • Cut the hoagie rolls in half lengthwise like a book, without separating the two halves all the way. Drizzle the inside of the rolls with some EVOO, hinge the rolls open, and lay them down on the grill with the inside flat against the grill. Once they are well marked, 1 to 2 minutes, flip them over and grill the outside a little bit. Remove the rolls from the grill and reserve.
  • Grill the cutlets for 3 to 4 minutes on one side. Flip the cutlets and top each with some of the mango chutney, spreading it out a bit, and 2 slices of Brie. Tent the chicken with a piece of foil and continue to grill it for 3 to 4 minutes to melt the cheese. Remove the cutlets from the grill, cut each in half, and distribute the chicken among the grilled rolls, wedging it into the bread. Top the chicken with some of the chopped watercress and squeeze the hoagies shut. Serve the sandwiches alongside the tomato cucumber salad.

GRILLED CHICKEN AND MANGO SALAD



Grilled Chicken and Mango Salad image

A calorie-light but hearty salad, intended as a one-dish meal. No sugar, no mayo. Enjoy! (Cooking time includes is time to grill chicken)

Provided by Isabeau

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 1 1 salad, 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ripe mango, cubed
1 ripe avocado, cubed
1 (5 ounce) package mixed greens or 1 (5 ounce) package lettuce
2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, grilled and chopped (wood chips add a wonderful flavor when you don't have time to marinate)
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons scallions, chopped
1 jalapeno, diced
2 minced garlic cloves
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Combine dressing ingredients in a screw top jar and shake well.
  • Combine everything else in a large bowl and top with dressing. Toss to coat.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and firm mangoes: Unripe mangoes will be sour and lack flavor, while overripe mangoes will be mushy and difficult to slice. Look for mangoes that are yellow or orange in color, with a slight green tinge. They should be slightly soft to the touch, but not too soft.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the mangoes: A sharp knife will help you to create thin, even slices of mango. If your knife is dull, it will tear the mangoes and make them difficult to slice.
  • Marinate the chicken in a flavorful marinade: The marinade will help to add flavor and moisture to the chicken. You can use a variety of marinades, such as a simple olive oil and lemon juice marinade, or a more complex marinade with herbs and spices.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help to prevent it from drying out. If you cook the chicken over high heat, it will brown too quickly and become tough.
  • Assemble the salad just before serving: The mango and chicken salad is best served fresh. If you assemble the salad too far in advance, the mangoes will start to brown and the chicken will become dry.

Conclusion:

Grilled chicken and mango salad is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for summer. The sweetness of the mangoes pairs perfectly with the savory grilled chicken, and the salad is packed with fresh and flavorful ingredients. This salad is also easy to make, and it can be tailored to your own preferences. For example, you can add different types of greens, vegetables, or nuts to the salad. You can also adjust the amount of dressing used, or you can substitute a different type of dressing altogether. No matter how you choose to make it, grilled chicken and mango salad is a surefire hit.
