You can have this light, tasty dinner on the table in less than 10 minutes-just buy a deli chicken on your way home from work, or use leftovers from Sunday's roast. The only cooking you'd have to do is the asparagus, which takes only 2 or 3 minutes! This is great for a hot summer's night, when you don't want to heat up your whole kitchen making a great dinner! Ingredients:
1 cup asparagus, cut into 1 inch pieces |
2 tablespoons cider vinegar |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
2 teaspoons honey |
2 teaspoons fresh parsley, minced |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 cup cooked chicken, cubed |
1/2 cup diced apple |
2 cups salad greens (your favorite blend) |
alfalfa sprout (optional) |
Directions:
1. Cook asparagus in small amount of water until crisp-tender (cooking time will depend on thickness of asparagus;thin stalks 2-3 minutes, thicker stalks 3-4 minutes).
2. Drain and cool asparagus and set aside.
3. In salad bowl, combine vinegar, oil, honey, parsley, salt, and pepper, mixing well.
4. Add chicken, apple, and asparagus, tossing to coat.
5. Serve over lettuce/salad greens, garnishing with alfalfa sprouts if desired.
