The Method
Drop BROCCOLINI® baby broccoli into boiling water. After 3 minutes, drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking process. Toss chicken breasts with ¼ cup dressing. Marinate 1 or 2 hours in refrigerator. Grill or broil marinated chicken, basting with dressing. Slice crosswise. Line 4 plates with lettuces and arrange BROCCOLINI® baby broccoli, pear (or potato) and chicken on top. Sprinkle with nuts and goat cheese. Drizzle with dressing.
Sweet-Tart Dressing: Crush ½ teaspoon each dried marjoram, basil, rosemary and ground black pepper in mortar to release flavors. Put seasonings in jar; add ½ cup olive oil, ⅓ cup red wine vinegar and 3 tablespoons sugar. Shake until well blended.
Note: To glaze nuts, combine ½ cup sugar with 2 tablespoons water in skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until it melts and turns golden. Watch carefully as it turns color. Pour syrup over toasted pecans on oiled cookie sheet. Quickly separate nuts for even glaze. When cool, crack off excess glaze.
