Why recepie famous for?
Sweetened by luscious Masumoto Farms nectarines and juicy Black Muscato grapes, this is summer’s perfect impromptu chicken salad for a sweltering evening.
Ingredients
Poached, roasted or grilled chicken, chopped
Avocado, diced
Ripe LeGrande nectarines, peeled, pitted and diced
Black Muscato grapes, halved
Grilled corn on the cob, kernels sliced off
1 rib celery, chopped
Lettuce (include arugula if possible, for bite)
Kale leaf, rib removed and cut into a chiffonade
Croutons: Trader Joe’s Raisin Rosemary Crisps or other leftover crackers (or Marcona almonds)
Dressing: bottled Asian Sesame dressing (I used Girard’s Chinese Chicken Salad Dressing, but use your favorite)
Instructions
Combine all salad ingredients in a bowl and toss gently to combine. You will use amounts that seem right to you, depending on how many people you are serving. This salad is an exercise in creativity, so try not to obsess over exact amounts. If you want 10 grapes, then use 10!
Dress lightly with your favorite bottled Asian sesame-type dressing (or you can try this homemade version if you have time).
Sprinkle with broken crackers or croutons, or my new love, roasted Marcona almonds.
