Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce. Peel, then quarter onion. Separate onion into petals. Strip 1 tbsp thyme leaves (dbl for 4 ppl) from stems. Peel, then segment clementine. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with chicken salt, pepper and thyme.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add walnuts to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 4-5 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!) Transfer walnuts to a small bowl and set aside.
Heat the same pan over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then chicken. Sear until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side. Transfer chicken to an unlined baking sheet. Arrange onion petals around chicken. Drizzle 1 tsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) over onions. Bake in the middle of the oven until chicken is cooked through, 10-12 min.**
While chicken and onions bake, add vinegar, blueberry jam and 2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) to a large bowl. Whisk to combine. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
Slice chicken. Add spring mix and onion petals to the bowl with dressing. Toss to coat. Divide salad between plates. Top with chicken, clementines and walnuts. Crumble goat cheese over top.

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The blueberry balsamic dressing is a standout, with its sweet-tangy balance complementing the creamy goat cheese and toasted walnuts beautifully.
- Ease of prep: Most reviewers found this recipe quick and straightforward to pull together, though stripping fresh thyme leaves was noted as tedious; dried thyme is a practical alternative.
- Suggestions: Double the dressing ingredients for better coverage, and add extra goat cheese to ensure enough for both servings. Some reviewers found that cutting the roasted onion petals into smaller pieces after baking made them easier to eat.
- Leftovers: Leftovers keep well and some reviewers enjoyed the salad cold the next day, though the greens can soften overnight, so consider storing the dressing separately.
- Portions: Several reviewers felt the dish worked better as a lunch than a dinner, and some added a side carb like garlic toast or rice to make it more filling.
