Instructions
- Heat a medium cast-iron skillet over medium heat. While it comes to temperature, season the chicken with ½ teaspoon salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon of oil into the skillet, add the chicken and cook for 4 minutes a side or until cooked through.
- In the meantime, grab a small skillet or sauce pot and heat over medium to low heat. Toast the pine nuts until golden brown. Remove from heat promptly. Set aside.
- In a small jar or bowl, mix together the salad dressing ingredients until well combined.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and add the NatureSweet Cherubs, cook on the hot skillet for 2-3 minutes. Salt with ½ teaspoon salt and use a spatula to move them around occasionally until their skin begins to blister. Remove from heat.
- Build your salad: Slice or dice your chicken, add it to a bowl with the arugula. Add in the red onion, pine nuts, your blistered NatureSweet Cherubs and lastly the dressing. Gently toss and enjoy!
