Cooking Steps
1
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.)
- Cook until golden, 1-2 min per side. Transfer chicken to an unlined baking sheet.
- Roast in the middle of the oven until chicken is cooked through, 12-14 min.**
2
- Add 3 cups (6 cups) warm water to a small pot. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high.
- Using a spoon, lower eggs into the boiling water. Cook for 7 min for a runny yolk or 9 min for a set yolk.**
- Drain and rinse eggs under cold water for 30 sec, until cool enough to peel.
- Peel, then halve eggs. Season with salt and pepper.
3
- Meanwhile, cut cucumber into 1/4-inch rounds.
- Add apricot spread, 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) warm water and vinegar to a small bowl.
- Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
4
- When chicken is almost done, add spring mix, cucumbers and half the dressing to a large bowl.
- Season with salt and pepper then toss to coat.
5
- Thinly slice chicken.
- Divide salad between plates, then top with chicken, eggs and sunflower seeds.
- Spoon remaining dressing over chicken.
Customer reviews
Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavor: The apricot dressing was delicious, though some found the apricot flavour subtle. Consider adding dried apricot pieces for more pronounced taste.
- Ease of prep: Quick and easy to prepare. Some cooked the chicken in an air fryer or directly in a hot oven for convenience.
- Suggestions: Try blackening the chicken for extra flavour. Add more vegetables like tomatoes or onions to boost variety and juiciness.
- Portions: More cucumber would be nice; some felt there wasn't enough salad ingredients to balance the protein.
- Customization: Consider offering alternative greens to spring mix. The egg pairing was divisive; fruit, cheese, or dried cranberries could be tasty alternatives.
