Recipe of the Week: Grilled Chicken, Lentil and Peach Salad

August 6, 2020

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup French green lentils
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons shallots, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 small (6 ounce) boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 large (6 ounce) stone peaches, halved and pitted
  • 1/2 cup loosely packed mint leaves, torn
  • 1/2 cup loosely packed basil leaves, torn

Directions:

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the lentils with 3 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until the lentils are just tender, about 25 minutes. Drain.
  2. While the lentils are cooking, preheat a grill over medium heat. In a medium bowl, combine the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, oil, shallots, vinegar, mustard, honey, garlic and pepper. Place 2 tablespoons of the mixture in a medium bowl, add the chicken and toss to coat, set the remaining dressing aside.
  3. Place the chicken and peach halves, cut side down, on the grill. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Cook the peaches until charred on the cut side and softened slightly, 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes. Cut chicken into thin slices and the peaches into bite-size pieces.
  4. Divide the warm lentils among 4 plates. Arrange the chicken and peaches over the top. Sprinkle with the herbs and drizzle each salad with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the remaining dressing. Serve warm.
