Grilled Chicken Salad with Olives and Oranges

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

By Mayo Clinic Staff

Serves 4

Ingredients

    For the dressing
    1/2 cup red wine vinegar
    4 garlic cloves, minced
    1 tablespoon We Olive extra-virgin olive oil
    1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion
    1 tablespoon finely chopped celery
    Cracked black pepper, to taste

    4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, each 4 ounces
    2 garlic cloves
    8 cups leaf lettuce, washed and dried
    16 large ripe (black) olives
    2 navel oranges, peeled and sliced

Directions

To make the dressing, in a small bowl combine the vinegar, garlic, olive oil, onion, celery and pepper. Stir to mix evenly. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill or broiler. Away from the heat source, lightly coat the grill rack or broiler pan with cooking spray. Position the cooking rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source.

Rub the chicken breasts with garlic, then discard the cloves. Grill or broil the chicken until browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes each side. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing into strips.

Arrange 2 cups lettuce, 4 olives and 1/4 of the sliced oranges onto 4 plates. Top with 1/4 of the chicken strips and drizzle with dressing. Serve immediately.

Ricotta with Olives and Sun-Dried Tomato Relish

Thursday, January 15th, 2009

Total Time: 1 hour • Serves: 4

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons minced shallot
2 teaspoons minced flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon chopped oregano
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 tablespoons We Olive Roasted Garlic Olive Oil, plus more for brushing
Salt
12 slices peasant or ciabatta bread, about 1/2 inch thick
1 garlic clove
2 cups creamy Ricotta
1/4 cup pitted oil-cured Italian black olives, coarsely chopped

DIRECTIONS:
Preheat the oven to 400°. In a small bowl, combine the sun-dried tomatoes with the shallot, parsley, oregano, vinegar, lemon zest, crushed red pepper and the 2 tablespoons of oil. Season with salt.

Brush the bread on both sides with oil and bake for about 10 minutes, until golden and crisp. Rub lightly with the garlic clove.

Preheat the broiler and position a rack 6 inches from the heat. Spread the ricotta in a shallow medium gratin dish in a 3/4-inch-thick layer. Drizzle with oil and broil for about 10 minutes, turning the dish occasionally, until the ricotta is bubbling and golden. Spoon the relish and olives on top. Serve with the garlic toasts.
