Cookware
baking sheet pan · chef's knife · colander · cutting board · garlic press (optional) · measuring cups · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · oven mitts · tongs · whisk or fork
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Wash and dry all produce, and position the arugula aside if pre-washed.
- Quarter the potatoes, place them on one half of a baking sheet, drizzle with oil, and season with salt and pepper; spread into an even layer.
- Pat the chicken dry, cut it into thin cutlets, and place on the other half of the baking sheet; drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Roast on the sheet, turning potatoes and flipping the chicken halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mince the garlic and whisk it with oil, vinegar, Dijon, honey, salt, and pepper to form the dressing.
- Quarter, core, and thinly slice the pear and add it to the dressing; fold in the chopped pecans.
- Crumble the goat cheese and set it aside for later.
- When the chicken and potatoes finish, transfer the chicken to a cutting board and slice into thin strips.
- Toss the warm potatoes and arugula with the dressing in a large bowl, then top with the sliced chicken.
- Distribute the salad onto plates or bowls and serve.
Two tips
- Prep ahead by washing the arugula and measuring the dressing ingredients while the potatoes roast.
- If you have leftovers, refrigerate components separately and assemble fresh before eating to preserve texture.
