Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Pineapple Glaze: In a small saucepan, whisk together the pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, and minced garlic with 1 tablespoon of the sesame ginger dressing from the salad kit. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer until it reduces to about 1/3 of its original volume. This intensifies the flavors into a luscious glaze. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)

02

Step

Grill the Chicken: Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly brush the grill grates with oil or spray with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.

03

Step

Baste and Grill: Generously baste the chicken breasts with the prepared pineapple glaze. Place the chicken on the hot grill and cook, turning once and continuing to baste with the glaze, for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

04

Step

Slice the Chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.

05

Step

Assemble the Salad: In a large bowl, combine the salad blend from the DOLE Asian Island Crunch™ Salad Kit with the provided accompaniments (such as wonton strips, almonds, etc.). Toss everything together with the remaining dressing from the kit.

06

Step

Plate and Garnish: Arrange the dressed salad on individual plates. Top with the sliced grilled chicken, thinly sliced red bell pepper, and red onion. Serve immediately and enjoy the explosion of flavors!

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the pineapple glaze.
If you don't have a grill, you can pan-fry the chicken in a skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until browned and cooked through.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the salad, such as shredded carrots, cucumbers, or edamame.
For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with grilled tofu or tempeh.
