MANGO, CHICKEN AND SPINACH SALAD



Mango, Chicken and Spinach Salad image

A light and refreshing entree salad inspired by a Weight Watchers recipe. But don't let this meal's origin stop you from trying this. If mango is not available, then peaches and peach nectar should also work well. I have presented two ways to prepare the dressing, a simple vinagrette and a warmer version thickened with cornstarch. For those following the Flex Program, the salad is 4 points per serving. For Core folks, the salad is Core plus 1 point for the non-Core dressing.

Provided by justcallmetoni

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 26m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

2/3 cup fat-free chicken broth
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
salt and pepper

2 medium mangoes, cut into bite-size pieces
1 small cucumber

2 teaspoons honey mustard
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon canola oil
1/4 teaspoon ginger
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon water (optional)
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)

Steps:

  • Stir together all of the ingredients for the dressing. Set aside if you want a cold (thinner) dressing.

  • Transfer the dressing (warm or cold) into a large bowl.
  • Heat broth with ground ginger in a small nonstick skillet. Season chicken to taste with salt and pepper and add to skillet. Cover and simmer is cooked through, about 8 minutes per side. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • Clean spinach. Dice the red pepper (if using) into 1/2 inch pieces. If using the red onion, slice very thin into half moon shapes. Peel the cucumber and half lengthwise. Cut into 1/4 inch thick slices. Add all vegetables to the large bowl with dressing and toss to coat. Transfer to serving bowl or plates.
