Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

    Shave the Brussels sprouts using a mandolin or sharp knife until you have about 4 cups. Place in a large salad bowl.

  2. 2

    Add the Berries and Apple

    Wash and slice the strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and grapes. Core and slice the Granny Smith apple into thin wedges. Add all berries and apple to the bowl with the shaved Brussels sprouts.

Vinaigrette Preparation

  1. 3

    Mix the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together apple cider vinegar, honey, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Candied Pecans Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Candied Pecans

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add pecans, brown sugar, and cinnamon, stirring frequently until the sugar melts and coats the pecans, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

Chicken Preparation

  1. 5

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix achiote paste, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Coat the chicken breasts with the marinade and allow to sit for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 6

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble the Salad

    Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad base and toss gently to combine. Top with the grilled chicken slices and sprinkle with candied pecans before serving.
