I enjoy cooking but don't always have time to prepare elaborate meals, so I love this pretty salad because It's so fast to fix, says Cheryl Arnold of Lake Zurich, Illinois. Ingredients:
1/2 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips |
3 teaspoons olive oil, divided |
1/4 teaspoon cornstarch |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar |
2 tablespoons orange juice |
3 cups torn fresh spinach |
1 medium navel orange, peeled and sectioned |
2 thin slices red onion, halved |
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts, toasted |
Directions:
1. In a small skillet, saute chicken in 1 teaspoon oil for 5 minutes or until no longer pink.
2. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, salt, pepper, vinegar, orange juice and remaining oil until smooth; stir into skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1 minute or until thickened.
3. In a large serving bowl, combine the spinach, orange, onion and walnuts; add chicken mixture and toss. Serve immediately. Yield: 2 servings.
