Method

Chicken Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken Salad

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken breast, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, celery, green onions, salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and lemon juice. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated and combined.

Salad Assembly

  1. 2

    Prepare the Salad

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, toss the arugula with the dressing until lightly coated.

Fresh Fruit Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Fresh Fruit

    Wash and chop the mixed fresh fruit into bite-sized pieces if necessary, and set aside.

Cinnamon Toast Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Cinnamon Toast

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small bowl, mix together softened butter, sugar, and ground cinnamon. Spread the mixture evenly on one side of each slice of bread. Place the slices on a baking sheet, buttered side up, and bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden and crisp.

Serving

  1. 5

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving plate, place a handful of the dressed arugula, a generous scoop of chicken salad on top, and arrange the fresh fruit on the side. Serve with slices of cinnamon toast.
