INGREDIENTS
1 cup diced Butternut Squash
2 cups chopped Kale
1/2 cup roasted Chickpeas
3 ounces Chicken Breast
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 tablespoon Tahini
1 clove Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the diced butternut squash with a touch of olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread it on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the squash is roasting, rinse and pat dry the chickpeas. Toss them with a bit of olive oil, salt, pepper, and minced garlic. Spread on a separate baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until crispy.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill on a preheated grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat for about 6-7 minutes per side, until cooked through. Once rested, slice into strips.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, tahini, a little olive oil, and minced garlic to create a light dressing.
In a large bowl, combine the chopped kale and roasted butternut squash. Drizzle a small amount of the dressing over the kale and massage it in to soften the leaves.
Top the salad with crispy chickpeas and grilled chicken strips. Drizzle a bit more dressing if desired, and adjust salt and pepper to taste before serving.
