Cookware
chef's knife · citrus juicer (optional) · colander · cutting board · measuring cups · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · nonstick skillet · slotted spoon · stirring spoon · tongs · whisk or fork
Directions
- Rinse and dry the produce, and set arugula aside if it comes pre-washed.
- In a medium bowl, juice half of a lemon and whisk in olive oil, Dijon, maple syrup, salt, and pepper to make the dressing; set aside.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Pat the chicken dry, cut into bite-sized pieces, and season with salt and pepper.
- Add a light coat of oil to the skillet and cook the chicken until browned and cooked through, about 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a small bowl, crumble the goat cheese and mix in the dried cranberries; set aside.
- On a clean cutting board, peel, halve, and slice the onion into thin half-moons.
- Use a slotted spoon to move the chicken to a plate, leaving juices in the skillet; add the onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 4 minutes.
- Trim tops and roots from radishes, cut into matchsticks, and toss with the dressing in a separate bowl.
- To the skillet with onion, add balsamic vinegar and sugar; cook, stirring constantly, until the liquid reduces, about 1 minute. Return the chicken and any juices to the skillet and remove from heat.
- Toss the arugula with the remaining dressing and the radish mixture.
- Warm the tortillas, divide the chicken between them, top with the arugula salad and the goat cheese–cranberry mixture, roll tightly, and cut in half; divide onto plates and serve.
Two tips
- Make the dressing ahead and refrigerate up to a day; shake before using.
- For variation, serve the filling over a bed of extra arugula or with the goat cheese-cranberry mixture sprinkled on top.
