Salad Base

Blueberry Pomegranate Vinaigrette

Method

Preparation of Salad Components

  1. 1

    Grill the Chicken

    Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill them over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Set aside to cool, then slice.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Fruits

    Wash and slice the apple and pear into thin pieces, removing the core and seeds.

  3. 3

    Make the Candied Pecans

    In a skillet over medium heat, add pecans and toast for 2-3 minutes. Add honey and stir until the pecans are coated. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until they are fragrant and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

Preparation of Vinaigrette

  1. 4

    Mix the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together blueberry juice, pomegranate juice, olive oil, honey, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, toss the mixed greens with the sliced apples and pears. Add the sliced grilled chicken on top.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the candied pecans, bleu cheese crumbles, and dried cranberries over the salad.

  3. 7

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the blueberry pomegranate vinaigrette over the salad just before serving and toss gently to coat.
