INGREDIENTS
1 cup diced Butternut Squash
2 cups chopped Kale
3 oz Grilled Chicken Breast
2 tbsp Pecans
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the diced butternut squash with a pinch of salt and a drizzle of olive oil (if desired) and spread on a baking sheet.
Roast the squash in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
While the squash is roasting, remove the stems from the kale and massage the leaves with a little apple cider vinegar to soften and slightly wilt them.
Season the chicken breast with your favorite herbs and a dash of salt, then grill or cook in a pan over medium heat until fully cooked. Slice into strips once done.
In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pecans for 2-3 minutes until they become fragrant and slightly crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
In a large bowl, combine the roasted butternut squash, massaged kale, and grilled chicken. Drizzle with 2 teaspoons of olive oil and the remaining apple cider vinegar. Toss gently to combine the flavors.
Top the salad with the crispy toasted pecans and serve immediately.
