Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-low.
- When hot, add almonds, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) sugar and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) water to the dry pan.
- Toast for 3-4 min, stirring often, until almonds are golden and coated in caramel glaze.
- Carefully arrange almond pralines on a plate in a single layer. (NOTE: Be careful; caramel will be hot! Do not touch pralines until cool.)
- Sprinkle a pinch of salt over top.
- Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with garlic salt and pepper.
- When almond pralines are done, reheat the same pan over medium.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken.
- Cook on one side for 6-7 min, until golden. Flip, then cover and continue cooking for 6-7 min, until cooked through.**
- While chicken cooks, core, then cut apple into 1/2-inch pieces.
- To a small bowl, add vinegar, blueberry jam, mustard, 1 tsp (2 tsp) water and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil.
- Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
- When chicken is done, add spring mix to a large bowl.
- Drizzle half the blueberry vinaigrette over top, then toss to coat.
- Thinly slice chicken.
- Divide salad between plates. Top with apples, then chicken.
- Drizzle remaining blueberry vinaigrette over top.
- Sprinkle with almond pralines.
If you've opted to get chicken thighs, cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook chicken breasts.
