Add a photoFive spice powder has been a Chinese shortcut for years, a way to combine all the aromatics in one convenient package. Tossed with orange juice and chicken, it makes a terrific, flavorful salad with a complex layered taste that belies the simple recipe.
Ingredients
- 6 t evoo
- 1 t five-spice powder
- 1 t kosher salt, divided
- 1/2 t freshly ground pepper, plus more to taste
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed of fat
- 3 oranges
- 12 C mixed Asian or salad greens
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
- 1/2 cup slivered red onion
- 3 T cider vinegar
- 1 T dijon mustard
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450 F. Combine 1 teaspoon oil, five spice powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Rub the mixture into both sides of the chicken breasts.
- Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add chicken; cook until browned on one side, 3-5 minutes. Turn it over and transfer the pan to the oven. Roast until the chicken is just cooked through (an instant read thermometer inserted into the center should read 165 F), 6-8 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board; let rest for 5 minutes (it will finish cooking as it rests).
- Meanwhile, peel and segment two of the oranges. Collect segments and any juice in a large bowl. (Discard membranes, pith and skin.) Add the greens, bell pepper and onion to the bowl. Zest and juice the remaining orange. Place the zest and juice in a small bowl; whisk in vinegar, mustard, the remaining 4 teapsoons oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Pour the dressing over the salad; toss to combine. Slice the chicken and serve on the salad.
