Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 bone-in, skin on chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon orange zest plus 1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 package (8 ounces) cooked beets, thinly sliced
5 ounces baby arugula or mixed greens (5 cups)
2 red apples, quartered, cored, and thinly sliced
1 cup pomegranate seeds

Steps:

  • In a medium pot, combine chicken and enough water to cover by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high, then reduce heat to a low simmer and cook chicken until cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate and let sit until cool enough to handle. Remove skin and bones and thinly slice.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together orange zest and juice, and oil; season with salt and pepper. Arrange beets on a large platter. Top with greens, chicken, apples, and pomegranate seeds. Drizzle with orange dressing.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less apple and pomegranate next time.

I'm allergic to beets, so I used shredded carrots instead. The salad was still delicious!
