Ingredients
- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breast
- 4 cups arugula for salad
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 avocado sliced
- 1 small red onion thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
- 1/3 cup pistachio chopped, roasted no-shell
Marinade/dressing:
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard whole grain
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 garlic minced, clove
- salt to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- black pepper to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
Instructions
- In a small jar combine all the marinade/dressing ingredients and shake to emulsify. Pour 1/3 of the dressing over the chicken and allow it to marinate for 20 minutes over the counter, or overnight in the fridge. Reserve the remaining dressing, making sure it didn't touch the raw chicken to use later on the salad.
- Preheat a grill pan or an outdoor grill over medium heat. Grill the chicken until the internal temperature reads 165F. Once the chicken is done cooking, transfer it to a chopping board and allow it to sit for 5 minutes before slicing it.
- To a large salad bowl add the arugula, blueberries, avocado, onion, crumbled feta and pistachios. Top with the sliced chicken and the reserved dressing. Toss to combine and enjoy!
Notes
- Store any leftover salad in an airtight container for up to 3 to 4 days. If it’s possible, store the salad dressing and avocado separately from the rest of the salad to preserve the greens a little longer.
- Instead of chicken you can use shrimp or steaks.
- Use any other greens instead of arugula.
- Don't like blueberries? Use another berry-like blackberries or strawberries.
