By Tara Daniels, Woodland Fire Department Station 1.
Note: The cook time for the pear and bread overlaps the cook time for the chicken.
The cook time for the chicken may vary, depending on the size of the chicken breasts and the heat of the coals. Cook chicken to an internal temperature of 170 degrees to avoid risk of bacteria and foodborne illness.
INGREDIENTS
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt, pepper, granulated garlic to taste
1 pear, firm but ripe
Dressing:
1 big garlic clove, finely minced
1/2 cup olive oil
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 medium red onion, very thinly sliced
Salad:
1 large head butter lettuce, washed and torn
1 cup crumbled blue cheese
1 cup candied pecans or walnuts
1/4 cup dried cranberries
Garlic bread:
1 loaf French bread
1/2 cup butter
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
INSTRUCTIONS
Clean and dry chicken breasts. Season chicken to taste with salt, pepper and granulated garlic. Set aside.
Slice pear in half and core.
If making garlic bread, slice loaf in half the long way, melt butter and add minced garlic, then brush garlic butter mixture onto bread.
Place chicken, pears face down, and garlic bread crust on a hot grill. Cook chicken until firm, juices run clear and internal temperature reaches 170 degrees.
Cook pears for 1 minute, just until grill marks show.
Cook garlic bread until grill marks show, about 5 minutes, then flip and cook 2 minutes butter side down.
While the above ingredients are cooking, prepare dressing and salad.
Salad dressing: Mix minced garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, and sugar in a bowl. Whisk with fork until emulsified. Place sliced red onion into dressing bowl.
Place lettuce in a large bowl. Add blue cheese, nuts and cranberries. Slice the grilled pear into 1/8-inch thick slices and add to salad.
Remove chicken from grill and slice thinly. Add dressing with onions to salad and toss. Top salad with chicken. Slice garlic bread and serve on the side.
