Make Grilled Chicken

Make Grilled Chicken

• I was thinking of what to prepare for dinner last night while doing the groceries. The fresh chicken breast caught my attention and the light bulb in my head immediately lit-up. Grilling the chicken is the thing that I have in mind and the only challenge left is to have a unique salad idea to compliment the chicken.

Based on experience, I had 2 facts about Grilled Chicken that I used as a basis in selecting the salad ingredients.

• 1. It goes well with fruits

• 2. It easily absorbs sauce.

• It just happened that I am passing by the canned fruit isle and mandarin orange segments were the first ones that I saw. Since Mandarin orange is a fruit and it contains juice, it can be a perfect candidate. Grilled red bell pepper is the next ingredient to have but I settled on bottled grilled sweet pepper because bell peppers (capsicum) are so expensive at this time (I wonder why). I also got some shallots and parsley for additional spice and aroma.

• After tossing the salad ingredients, I scooped a spoonful to judge the taste. I never expected the concoction to taste that good. I was really amazed.

Try this out and let me know what you think.

PREPARATIONS :

1. Combine mandarin orange segments, sweet roasted pepper, shallots, and parsley.

2. Toss the ingredients to be evenly distributed. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

3. Rub salt and pepper on the chicken breast and let stand for about 30 minutes (for the chicken to absorb the flavor).
