CHICKEN SALAD WITH RASPBERRY VINAIGRETTE



Chicken Salad With Raspberry Vinaigrette image

I have been trying to eat more fruits and vegetables, so salads have been on the menu almost every day. I've gotten tired of the same old.. same old.. I don't think I can look another piece of lettuce in the eye for quite some time, so this is what I came up with. Feel free to add or delete fruits and veggies as you see fit. This adjusts easily to make more than one serving. I find this to be 1 main dish serving, or two servings if being served along with something else. Easily adapted to Vegan.. just leave out the chicken, or replace with seasoned tofu.

Provided by Kristen Stevens

Categories     Dinner

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 medium chicken breasts
4 tablespoons BBQ sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1 pinch sea salt
4 cups spinach leaves
½ cup raspberries
½ cup sliced radishes
¼ cup mint leaves (lightly packed)
¼ cup basil leaves (lightly packed)
2 tablespoons slivered almonds
2 tablespoons goat cheese
2 handfuls cherry tomatoes
1 cup fresh or frozen and thawed raspberries
4 large basil leaves
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons cold water
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat your BBQ to medium-high. Mix the BBQ sauce, honey, and salt in a medium-sized bowl then add the chicken breasts and coat them in the marinade. Let them marinate while you chop the veggies and prepare the dressing.
  • Put the salad dressing ingredients in a blender and blend on high until smooth. If needed, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dressing is pourable.
  • Pile all of the salad ingredients into a large salad bowl.
  • When your grill is hot, put on the chicken breasts. Let them cook for 6 minutes then baste them with some of the marinade and flip them over to cook for another 6-8 minutes on the other side, or until they are no longer pink inside and reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Drizzle half of the raspberry vinaigrette over the salad then top with the chicken. Optional: slice the chicken breasts into strips before adding them to the salad.

Provided by EmmyDuckie

Categories     < 4 Hours

Time 2h30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1 cup white wine
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, ground
1 teaspoon salt
8 cups baby spinach leaves
2 blood oranges, peeled and sectioned
1/2 small red onion, sliced
1 avocado, sliced
1/4 cup white balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons white wine
1/4-1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon seedless raspberry preserves
salt

Steps:

  • Mix wine, salt, and cayenne pepper, pour over chicken breasts and marinate at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
  • Drain marinade, and pat dry chicken.
  • Grill on outdoor grill or grill pan until done, cut into bite sized slices, keep warm.
  • Combine dressing ingredients in a jar with a tight fitting lid. It may be necessary to microwave for a few seconds to get the preserves incorporated.
  • Toss spinach with dressing, divide onto 4 plates, top with orange, onion, and avocado, and sliced chicken.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe ingredients: This will ensure that your salad is flavorful and delicious. Look for fruits that are plump and brightly colored, and vegetables that are crisp and tender.
  • Make your own raspberry vinaigrette: It's easy to make and tastes much better than store-bought dressing. Plus, you can control the ingredients and make it to your liking.
  • Don't overdress the salad: A little dressing goes a long way. Too much dressing can weigh down the salad and make it soggy.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This will prevent the fruit and vegetables from wilting and becoming soggy. You can also make the salad ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
  • Add some nuts or seeds for extra crunch: This will add some texture and flavor to the salad. Some good options include almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds, or pumpkin seeds.
  • Garnish the salad with fresh herbs: This will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish. Some good options include basil, cilantro, or mint.

Conclusion:

Summer chicken salad with raspberry vinaigrette is a refreshing, flavorful, and healthy dish that is perfect for a summer meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your liking. So next time you're looking for a light and delicious lunch or dinner, give this salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
