Ingredients

  • 5g mint and garlic seasoning
  • 300g free-range chicken breast fillet
  • 1pcs garlic bread
  • 20g walnuts
  • 50g horseradish dressing
  • 1stalk celery
  • 1pcs granny smith apple
  • 100g baby spinach leaves
  • 1pcs olive oil
  • 10ml Australian honey
  • 15ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 15ml white wine vinegar

Method

  1. Step 1 — Prep chicken
    Preheat the oven to 200C, fan-forced. Combine the mint and garlic seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil in a shallow dish and season with salt and pepper. Put the chicken flat on a board, put your hand on top and halve horizontally into fillets. Add the chicken to the marinade and turn to coat.
  2. Step 2 — Cook chicken
    Heat a medium frypan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 2-4 mins each side until golden and cooked through. Remove from the pan and rest for 3 mins.
  3. Step 3 — Bake garlic croutons
    While the chicken is cooking, line 2 oven trays with baking paper. Coarsely tear the garlic bread into bite-sized chunks and spread, in a single layer, on a lined tray. Bake for 6-8 mins until golden and crisp.
  4. Step 4 — Bake candied walnuts
    Meanwhile, spread the walnuts, in a single layer, on the remaining lined tray. Drizzle with 2 tsp honey, season with salt and stir to coat. Bake on a separate shelf for 5-6 mins until golden.
  5. Step 5 — Make dressing
    While the croutons and walnuts are baking, put the horseradish dressing, 1 tbs extra virgin olive oil and 1 tbs white wine vinegar in a large bowl, season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
  6. Step 6 — Get ready to serve
    Thinly slice the celery. Cut 4 'cheeks' from the apple and thinly slice, discarding the core. Add the celery, apple, spinach and garlic croutons to the dressing and toss to combine. Slice the chicken. Divide the salad and chicken among plates and drizzle the chicken with any resting juices, if desired. Scatter over the candied walnuts to serve.
