This healthy salad is full of crisp greens, filling chicken, and immune-boosting pomegranate seeds. Added crunch from toasted walnuts, a sprinkle of creamy gorgonzola and a tangy dressing make this salad a great option for a satisfying lunch or a light dinner.
Wash and dry your arugula and place in a serving bowl.
Chop your chicken into strips and grill or sauté over the stove (I typically just season the chicken breast well with salt and pepper and heat on the stove top until cooked through – you can do a big batch of these all at once and then keep them in the fridge to throw on salads, in pastas, etc. all week long – it’s a great time-saver!)
While your chicken is cooking, toast your walnuts. Just heat them in a skillet over medium heat for a few minutes until fragrant – be careful with these and keep a close eye on them – they can burn quickly!
Top your salad with the chicken strips, toasted walnuts, cheese and pomegranates.
Mix your salad ingredients together in a small bowl.
Drizzle dressing over the salad, or serve on the side.
