GRILLED CHICKEN SPINACH SALAD WITH HABANERO-PEACH VINAIGRETTE image

Categories Chicken

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

For the Habanero Peach Vinaigrette dressing:
1 can (about 15 ounces) peach halves or slices in juice, drained (1/2 cup juice reserved)
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground habanero pepper
For the salad:
3 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, about 6 ounces each
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
2 bags (about 9 ounces each) cleaned baby spinach leaves
1 cup chopped, toasted walnuts
3 ounces crumbled blue cheese or chevre (optional)*

Steps:

To make the dressing, purée all of the dressing ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth. Place the chicken in a plastic zipper bag. Add half the dressing (3/4 cup), seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, no more than 8 hours. Preheat a grill for direct grilling, medium heat. Soak the onion in ice water for at least 10 minutes; drain. Grill the chicken until browned on both sides, firm to the touch and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the side of the thickest piece of chicken registers 170°F. Toss the spinach, onions, walnuts and cheese with the remaining 3/4 cup dressing. Slice the grilled chicken and arrange on top of the salad.

Tips:

Use ripe, firm peaches for the best flavor and texture.
If you don't have habanero peppers, you can use a different type of chili pepper, such as jalapeño or serrano. Just adjust the amount to taste.
If you want a spicier dish, add more habanero peppers or chili powder.
Be careful not to overcook the chicken, or it will become dry and tough.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, potatoes, or vegetables.

This peach habanero chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or potluck.
