GOLDEN CHICKPEAS
Place a pan (with a lid) over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, toast the rinsed chickpeas until golden and crispy, 12-15 minutes (shifting occasionally). If they start to pop out, use a lid to rein them in. Remove from the pan, season, and set aside.
TOAST THE WALNUTS
Return the pan to medium heat. Toast the chopped walnuts until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.
DO THE DRESSING
In a small bowl, combine the dijon vinaigrette with 15ml of olive oil, a sweetener, and seasoning. Mix until emulsified and set aside.
FRY THE CHICKEN
Return the pan to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the chicken on one side until golden, 2-4 minutes. Flip, cover with the lid, and fry until cooked through, 2-4 minutes. During the final 1-2 minutes, baste the chicken with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan and rest for 5 minutes before slicing and seasoning.
CHAR THE GREEN BEANS
While the chicken is resting, return the pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the green beans until blistered and tender, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan, place in a bowl, and season. Add ½ the dijon vinaigrette dressing and toss together.
PUT IT ALL TOGETHER
Create a bed of the shredded salad leaves. Sprinkle over the crispy chickpeas. Top with the mustard-blistered beans and the toasted walnuts. Crumble over the goat’s cheese and drizzle over the remaining dijon vinaigrette dressing (to taste). Side with the chicken. Looking good, Chef!
