WHAT IS THE BEST RECIPE FOR ROCKET?

CHICKEN & ARTICHOKE & ROCKET SALAD RECIPE

Ingredients

• Juice of 1 lemon
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed
• 1/3 cup (80ml) extra virgin olive oil
• 4 boneless chicken breast fillets
• 300g marinated artichokes, drained, quartered
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
• 2 cups wild rocket
• 1/4 cup shaved parmesan
• Lemon wedges, to serve

Instructions

• Combine the lemon juice, garlic and 2 tablespoons of the oil in a non-metallic dish. Add the chicken fillets and coat with the marinade, then cover with plastic wrap and leave in the fridge for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 180°C and lightly grease a baking tray.
• Heat a chargrill or heavy-based frypan over high heat and cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes, turning once, until charred and nearly cooked through. Remove, place on the baking tray and cook in the oven for a further 5 minutes.
• While the chicken is in the oven, place the artichokes on the chargrill or in the pan for 1-2 minutes, turning once, until lightly charred. Place in the oven to keep warm.
• Mix together the remaining oil, balsamic vinegar and mustard, and season well. Remove the chicken and artichokes from the oven, allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes, then thickly slice.
• Place the rocket in a large bowl with the chicken and artichokes, then toss together with the balsamic dressing. Divide between plates, scatter with shaved parmesan and serve with lemon wedges.
