Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups white vinegar
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 tbsp fresh tarragon
2/3 cup vegetable oil
4 (4 oz) boneless skinless chicken breasts
8 large fresh spinach leaves
16 unsweetened mandarin orange segments
4 green onions , tops included, finely chopped

Directions:

Marinade: In a large resealable plastic bag, mix vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, pepper, tarragon and oil. Remove and reserve 1/2 cup for dressing the final salad.
Slice chicken into strips about 2-inches long. (Chicken that is partially frozen is easier to slice). Add chicken pieces to marinade in the bag; seal and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, wash and thoroughly dry spinach leaves. Line 4 salad plates with leaves and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Drain mandarin oranges and chill segments.
Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Remove chicken from marinade (discard marinade) and add to the skillet.Saute chicken strips for 7-10 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
Assembly: divide chicken equally among 4 spinach lined plates. Top each plate with 4 orange segments and 1/4 of the green onions. Drizzle each plate with 2 tablespoons of the reserved marinade/dressing.
Serve immediately.
