Fried Chicken Salad With Sugar Snap Peas And Green Goddess Ranch Recipes

Steps:

• For the dressing: Place the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, milk, spinach, basil, parsley, garlic and lemon zest in a blender with a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth, then taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Set aside.
• For the salad: Add the chicken, grapes, walnuts, scallions and cucumber to a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the basil and parsley. Serve on a bed of lettuce, in a sandwich or wrap, or cover and chill until needed.

Steps:

• Cut the roast chicken into small pieces and discard the skin and bones. Put the chicken, grapes, almonds, scallions and celery in a large bowl. In another bowl, mix the mayonnaise, yogurt, cream, dill, brown sugar and some salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Allow to chill for several hours or even overnight.
• Before serving, garnish with halved grapes and chopped dill. Serve on a bed of lettuce or in a sandwich.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the chicken in a roasting pan, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast until the juices run clear, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Let cool completely before using for chicken salad.

Steps:

• Beat egg in a shallow dish.
• Mix bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese together in a shallow dish.
• Season chicken with Cajun seasoning. Dip chicken into beaten egg and dredge in bread crumb mixture, pressing lightly to coat evenly.
• Heat olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook breaded chicken in the hot oil until golden brown, about 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drain chicken on paper towels. Slice into strips.
• Divide lettuce, tomato, carrots, and hard-boiled eggs between 2 large pasta bowls. Top with sliced chicken; drizzle salad dressing on top.

Steps:

• Put the avocado, oil, lime zest and juice, jalapeño, basil, half the cucumber and 1 tbsp water in a blender and blitz until smooth. Season to taste, then set aside in the fridge until ready to use.
• Cook the eggs in a pan of boiling water for 7 mins, then rinse under cold running water to cool. Drain, peel and halve, then set aside.
• Toss the lettuce quarters with the sundried tomatoes, cooked chicken, the spring onions and remaining cucumber. Spread the cooked quinoa over the base of a serving plate, then top with the chicken salad, eggs and the dressing. Scatter over the pistachios and serve.

Steps:

• Combine buttermilk, mayonnaise, anchovies, garlic, herbs, scallions, mustard, lemon zest and juice, and oil in a blender. Purée until smooth; season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pat chicken dry and season generously with salt. Place in a resealable bag and add 2 cups dressing; seal and massage to evenly coat chicken in dressing. Refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to 1 day. Cover and refrigerate remaining dressing until ready to use.
• Preheat oven to 425°F. Remove chicken from refrigerator and let stand 30 minutes at room temperature. Wipe excess dressing from chicken and lightly pat dry; place on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment. Drizzle with oil and season lightly with salt. Roast, breast-side up, until skin is dark golden and a thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 160°, 40 to 50 minutes (depending on size). Let stand 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain and cool. Toss lettuce, pea shoots, snap peas, radishes, and bacon with one-third of reserved dressing. Season with salt and pepper. Carve chicken and serve alongside salad, with remaining dressing.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, add the chicken and enough cold water to cover it by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When the water begins to boil, lower heat immediately to a gentle simmer, cover partially with a lid and cook for 10 minutes. (Monitor that the bubbles never get too big; lower heat if so.) Turn off the heat, cover completely with lid, and leave on the stovetop for another 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare the sugar snap peas: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. When it begins to boil, set a bowl of ice water next to the stovetop. Drop sugar snap peas into boiling water and cook until crisp-tender, 30 to 45 seconds. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the sugar snap peas to the ice water to cool completely. Drain well and pat dry on a clean dish towel in a single layer.
• Transfer sugar snap peas to a cutting board and trim the tips, if needed, then slice lengthwise into thirds on a slight diagonal. Transfer to a large bowl or lidded container, and refrigerate.
• Prepare the dressing: In a mortar and pestle, coarsely grind the sesame seeds, leaving some whole. In a small bowl, combine ground sesame seeds, mayonnaise, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir until smooth.
• Set a bowl of ice water next to the stovetop. Transfer the chicken to the ice water to cool completely. When chicken is cool enough to handle, pat dry, then finely shred the meat using your fingers. The shreds should be similar in size to the cut sugar snap peas.
• Add the shredded chicken and all of the dressing to the chilled snap peas; toss gently until coated. Enjoy immediately, or refrigerate for up to 1 day.

Steps:

• Process 1/2 cup mayonnaise, the vinegar, anchovies, garlic, scallions, and herbs in a food processor until combined.
• Whisk in remaining 1/2 cup mayonnaise and the sour cream; season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate 1 hour (up to 4 days).

Steps:

• For the dressing, whisk together grapefruit juice, shallot, and Dijon; season with salt and pepper. Whisk in oil.
• Toss lettuces and farro with 1/3 cup dressing and divide among 4 bowls. Top with flaked trout, avocado slices, and grapefruit. Season with pepper, drizzle with more dressing, and serve.
