The Method

Instructions

  1. 01

    Season the chicken with salt, pepper and olive oil. Grill over medium-high heat for 5–6 minutes per side. Rest 5 minutes, then slice.

  2. 02

    Whisk all dressing ingredients together until emulsified.

  3. 03

    Tear the lettuce into a wide bowl. Add tomatoes, orange segments and avocado.

  4. 04

    Top with sliced chicken, drizzle with dressing, and serve immediately.

— Chef's Notes —
  • Swap chicken for grilled halloumi to make it vegetarian.
  • A pinch of chilli flakes in the dressing wakes everything up.
