Instructions

Prep
1
  • Halve cucumber lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch half-moons.
  • Zest 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) clementine rind, then peel clementine and separate into segments.
  • Combine half the sriracha and 1 1/2 tbsp (3 tbsp) mayo in a small bowl.
Prep and sear chicken
2
  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) garlic salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.) Cook until golden, 1-2 min per side. 
Bake chicken
3
  • Transfer chicken to an parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Spread sriracha mayo (from step 2) over chicken.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven until chicken is cooked through, 10-12 min.**
  • When done, let chicken rest for 3-5 min.
Cook edamame
4
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
  • When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then edamame and 3 tbsp (6 tbsp) water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until edamame is slightly browned and water evaporates, 5-6 min. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Remove from heat, then transfer edamame to a plate.
  • Carefully wipe the pan clean.


Make dressing and toast peanuts
5
  • Meanwhile, add vinegar, clementine zest, remaining mayo, remaining sriracha and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
  • Reheat the same pan over medium heat.
  • When hot, add peanuts to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 1-2 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on them so they don't burn!)
  • Transfer peanuts to another plate.
Finish and serve
6
  • Add spinach, edamame, cucumbers and clementines to the bowl with dressing.
  • Thinly slice chicken.
  • Divide salad between plates. Serve chicken on top.
  • Sprinkle peanuts over top.
