chicken, kale & citrus salad / potato, leek & goat cheese frittata / smokey date jam

Contents of your meal kit:

chicken
orange
citrus vinaigrette
baby kale
fingerling potatoes
eggs
goat cheese
leeks
smokey date jam

Equipment needed: salad bowl, microwave-safe bowl, small mixing bowl, oven-safe nonstick skillet (see note)

Finishing steps:

  1. Preheat oven to broil. While you are waiting, peel oranges and slice them crosswise. Pour vinaigrette base into the bottom of your salad bowl and add an equal amount olive oil. Whisk or mix with a fork to combine. Add baby kale, toss gently and season with salt & pepper to taste. Top with sliced citrus.
  2. Season chicken with salt & pepper. Heat a small amount of oil in an oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken 3-5 minutes per side or until cooked through, set aside. Wipe skillet use again in step 5.
  3. While chicken is cooking, slice fingerling potatoes crosswise into ¼-inch slices. Place in a microwave-safe bowl, along with 2-3 tablespoons of water. Cover with plastic wrap, and poke a few holes to let steam escape. Microwave for 2-3 minutes or until tender, drain.
  4. While potatoes are cooking, crack eggs into a small mixing bowl and season generously with salt and pepper. Whisk together, and then stir in crumbled goat cheese.
  5. Place the oven-safe nonstick skillet back over medium heat with a small amount of oil. When oil is hot, add steamed potatoes and leeks and sauté together 5 minutes or until golden. Pour egg and goat cheese mixture into pan, stir once to combine, then immediately transfer to oven. Cook under broiler until puffed and lightly brown (1-3 minutes). Insert a knife into the center to test for doneness. Slide onto a plate, or let cool slightly to serve directly from skillet.
  6. Slice chicken and toss with kale salad. Serve frittata topped with smokey date jam.

Note: Use a small skillet for 2 portions, medium for 4-6. Most skillets are oven safe for a brief amount of time. If yours has a plastic or rubber handle, wrap foil around it to protect. Aren’t sure? Check the website for an alternative option.
