Best Warm Chicken Chicory Salad Recipes

WARM CHICKEN & CHICORY SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Rub the chicken all over with butter and season well, inside and out. Sit it in a small roasting tin, pour the Sherry vinegar around, and cover with foil. Roast for 2 hrs.
• Meanwhile, get all of the remaining ingredients ready. Boil the peas for 1 min until just tender. Drain well, plunge into cold water to quickly cool, then drain again and set aside.
• Once your chicken has roasted for 2 hrs, remove from oven. Pour the juices into a jug, then increase oven temp to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Roast for a further 20-30 mins (without foil) until golden.
• Skim the fat from the juices, then boil until you have about 100ml of juices left. Stir in the extra tbsp of vinegar, olive oil and caster sugar, taste, then tip onto your serving dish with the raisins.
• When the chicken has finished its second roasting, leave until cool enough to handle (or pop on a pair of clean rubber gloves), then tear the meat in large pieces from the carcass, onto the serving dish. Add the dill, chicory, salad leaves, pine nuts and peas, then toss together with your hands. Serve straightaway with some crusty bread.

WARM CHICKEN LIVER SALAD

Steps:

• Cook the green beans in a pan of boiling water for 3 mins, drain and keep warm. Meanwhile, toss together the chicken livers, olive oil and rosemary. Heat a large non-stick pan and cook the chicken livers over a high heat for 5-6 mins until nicely browned and cooked through - they should still be a little pink in the centre.
• Arrange the beans on serving plates with the lettuce leaves and watercress. Add the vinegar to the pan, cook for a couple of seconds then spoon over the salad. Serve warm with crusty granary bread.

WARM CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Spread the chunks of chicken and baguette over a shallow roasting tray. Drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil and toss to coat. Season, then put in the oven for 15 mins until the chicken is cooked through and the bread is golden and crisp.
• Whisk together the remaining olive oil and balsamic vinegar to make a dressing. Split the bag of leaves between two serving plates, add the beetroot, then scatter the cheese over. Toss with the warm chicken and bread, drizzle with the dressing, then serve straight away.

HOT CHICKEN SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees with a rack positioned in the center.
• Place the chicken, celery, mayonnaise, Cheddar, almonds, lemon juice and onion salt in a large bowl and mix to combine well. Taste for seasoning, and add salt and pepper as needed. The amount will depend on how seasoned your chicken is.
• Transfer the chicken mixture to a 3-quart (9-by-13-inch) shallow baking dish. Spread it out evenly and top with the crushed potato chips. Add more chips if needed to cover the top.
• Bake uncovered until the chips are golden brown and the mixture is warmed through and bubbling lightly at the bottom, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
