Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped shallot
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
4 peaches, halved and pitted
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
8 cups baby arugula

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Whisk 1/4 cup olive oil, balsamic vinegar, shallot, Dijon mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a bowl until dressing is well mixed.
  • Brush 1 teaspoon oil onto cut-side of peaches.
  • Place peaches, cut-side down, onto grill and cook until heated through, about 4 minutes. Transfer peaches to a plate.
  • Brush remaining oil onto both sides of chicken breasts and season with salt.
  • Cook chicken on grill until no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Slice chicken into thin pieces and cut peaches into 1/2-inch thick pieces.

Tips:

  • Use ripe pears: The sweetness of ripe pears pairs perfectly with the salty brie and crunchy pecans. If your pears are not ripe, you can ripen them by placing them in a paper bag at room temperature for a few days.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken is dry and tough. Cook the chicken breasts over medium heat until they are cooked through but still tender.
  • Toast the pecans: Toasting the pecans brings out their flavor and makes them more fragrant. You can toast the pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, or you can spread them on a baking sheet and toast them in a preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar: The balsamic vinegar dressing is a key component of this salad. Use a good quality balsamic vinegar that has a rich, complex flavor.

Conclusion:

This grilled chicken salad with pear, brie, and pecans is a delicious and refreshing summer salad. It's perfect for a light lunch or dinner, and it's also great for potlucks and picnics. The combination of sweet pears, salty brie, crunchy pecans, and tangy balsamic vinegar dressing is sure to please everyone at your table.
