For the chicken salad
- 1/4 cup 100% orange juice
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 1 green apple, cored and diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1/4 cup golden raisins
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 12 butter lettuce leaves
For the dressing
- 1/4 cup 100% orange juice
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon powdered sumac
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Heavy pinch freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Heat oven to 375°F.
- Place the chicken in a small baking dish, coat on all sides with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Pour the orange juice around the chicken. Cover and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the juices run clear. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.
- When cool enough to handle, cut the chicken into 1/2-inch cubes, cover, and refrigerate until chilled.
- Place the yogurt, orange juice, mustard, sumac, salt, and pepper into a medium mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
- Add the celery, apple, bell pepper, golden raisins, parsley, cilantro, and chilled chicken, then toss to coat. Taste and add additional salt and pepper as desired.
- Serve chicken salad on lettuce leaves.
