  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add chicken to hot pan. Cook until golden-brown and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes per side.

    Prepare Ingredients and Make Dressing

    Lettuce cups are a delicious but messy meal. For this recipe, they can easily be converted to a salad. Simply chop romaine and top with filling after completing steps.

    Cut off root end of romaine. Separate leaves of lettuce for cups.

    Trim ends off celery and cut into 1/4" slices on an angle.

    Quarter apple and remove core. Cut into 1/4" dice.

    Stem and mince parsley.

    In a mixing bowl, combine dressing, half the parsley (reserve remaining for garnish), and a pinch of salt. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Chop the Chicken

    After 10-15 minutes, or once cool enough to handle, remove chicken from refrigerator.

    Transfer to a clean, flat work surface and cut into 1/2" dice.

  5. 5

    Assemble Salad and Finish Dish

    Add chicken, apples, walnuts, cranberries, and celery to bowl with dressing. Toss to combine.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, filling lettuce cups with chicken salad. Garnish with remaining parsley. Bon appétit!
