Ingredients
- FOR THE SALAD:
- 8 cups greens use arugula, field greens, watercress or any other tender greens. I like to use whatever looks freshest at the market.)
- 1 fennel bulb very thinly sliced, reserve thin green fronds from top (they kind of look like dill, small
- 2 pink grapefruit peel and white pith removed, medium or ruby grapefruit
- 2-3 cups chicken breast broken up into large chunks (Prepared rotisserie chicken works great for this salad or you can roast your own, roasted
- ⅓ cup almonds whole shelled
- ¼ cup dried blueberries substitute dried cranberries or currants, if desired
- For the dressing:
- 1 tablespoon curry powder mild
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar syrup
- ⅓ cup mango chutney prepared
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- ¼ cup grapefruit juice reserved
- ⅔ cup extra virgin olive oil
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- black pepper to taste, freshly ground
- For the Croutons:
- ½ baguette cut into 1" cubes, medium-size
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- For the salad, place greens in a large bowl. Top with fennel, grapefruit slices, chicken, almonds, dried blueberries and fennel fronds. Drizzle lightly with the dressing. Serve and enjoy! Pass extra dressing at the table.
- For the dressing, heat a small sauté pan over medium heat. Add curry powder and stir for 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant (this helps intensify the delicious flavor).
- Place toasted curry powder in a medium-size glass jar. Add all remaining dressing ingredients and shake well. Dressing is even better if it sits for several hours to give the flavors time to meld.
- For the croutons, preheat oven to 350˚F. Place baguette cubes on a sheet pan. Drizzle with the olive oil and quickly toss to distribute oil. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until crisp and pale golden brown. Set aside.
Notes
- * Dried blueberries can sometimes we hard to find but they are super delicious. Usually, Costco and Trader Joe's will carry them and they're available online. ** Balsamic syrup is simply balsamic vinegar that"s been reduced. You can find it at Super Walmart stores or you can make your own by simmering balsamic vinegar for a few minutes just until it starts to thicken a bit. *** You can find mango chutney in the international aisle of the grocery store, usually in the Asian/Indian or at any Indian grocery or online. There are lots of brands to choose from, I like Major Grey which is fairly common and easy to find. Trader Joe's has a great mango chutney also. It's a fun condiment to have stashed in the fridge as it's also wonderful with grilled shrimp, chicken or pork and is delightful in a panini type sandwich.
