Yield Serves 2 generously

Number Of Ingredients 18

For dressing:
2 tablespoons raspberry vinegar*
1 tablespoon balsmic vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh gingerroot
1 garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with 1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 whole skinless boneless chicken breast (3/4 pound), halved
1 bunch spinach (about 3/4 pound), coarse stems discarded and leaves washed well and spun dry
1 firm-ripe mango, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
2 plum tomatoes, sliced thin
2/3 cup raspberries, picked over
4 scallions, chopped fine
1/4 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped coarse
Available at specialty foods shops and some supermarkets.

Steps:

  • Make dressing:
  • In a bowl whisk together all dressing ingredients except oil. Add oil in a stream, whisking, and whisk until emulsified. (Dressing may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered.)
  • In a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag coat chicken with 3 tablespoons dressing. (Marinate chicken, covered and chilled, 2 hours.)
  • Heat an oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and grill chicken, drained, until cooked through, about 7 minutes on each side. Transfer chicken to a platter and cool. (Chicken may be made up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.)
  • Cut chicken into 1/4-inch-thick slices and in a large bowl combine with remaining ingredients. Drizzle remaining dressing over salad and toss gently to combine well.

MANGO, CHICKEN AND SPINACH SALAD



Mango, Chicken and Spinach Salad image

A light and refreshing entree salad inspired by a Weight Watchers recipe. But don't let this meal's origin stop you from trying this. If mango is not available, then peaches and peach nectar should also work well. I have presented two ways to prepare the dressing, a simple vinagrette and a warmer version thickened with cornstarch. For those following the Flex Program, the salad is 4 points per serving. For Core folks, the salad is Core plus 1 point for the non-Core dressing.

Time 26m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

2/3 cup fat-free chicken broth
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
salt and pepper
6 cups Baby Spinach
2 medium mangoes, cut into bite-size pieces
1 small cucumber
1/2 large sweet red peppers or 1/2 red onion
1/3 cup mango nectar
2 teaspoons honey mustard
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon canola oil
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon water (optional)
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)

Steps:

  • Stir together all of the ingredients for the dressing. Set aside if you want a cold (thinner) dressing.
  • If you want a thicker dressing, place the dressing in a small sauce pan and simmer until it is about to boil. Mix water and cornstarch together into a slurry and add to dressing. Mix until it just begins to thicken.
  • Transfer the dressing (warm or cold) into a large bowl.
  • Heat broth with ground ginger in a small nonstick skillet. Season chicken to taste with salt and pepper and add to skillet. Cover and simmer is cooked through, about 8 minutes per side. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • Clean spinach. Dice the red pepper (if using) into 1/2 inch pieces. If using the red onion, slice very thin into half moon shapes. Peel the cucumber and half lengthwise. Cut into 1/4 inch thick slices. Add all vegetables to the large bowl with dressing and toss to coat. Transfer to serving bowl or plates.
  • Cut chicken into bite-size pieces and toss with any dressing left in the bowl. Arrange dressed chicken over the salad.
