Ingredients
Scaled 3
- 3 lb / 1362 g red-skin potatoes, scrubbed
- 3 serving cooking spray
- 6 lb / 2724 g boneless chicken breasts
- 2.25 lb / 1022 g green beans
- 6 celery stalks, thinly sliced
- 12 oz / 339 g green grapes, halved
- 0.75 c fresh lemon juice
- 0.75 c / 170 g fat-free chicken broth
- 3 TDijon mustard
- 9 T fresh tarragon leaves, chopped
- 1.5 t / 9 g salt
- 0.75 t freshly ground black pepper
- 0.75 c / 144 g olive oil
Method
1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat, add the potatoes, and cook until tender when pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon or strainer; set potatoes aside but maintain the water's boil.
2. Meanwhile, spray the broiler rack with nonstick cooking spray; preheat the broiler. Broil the chicken breasts 5 inches from the heat, turning occasionally, until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Set aside
3. Add the green beans to the boiling water; blanch until crisp-tender (no more than 2 minutes), then drain in a colander set in the sink.
4. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, cut it into bite-size chunks. Slice the potatoes into 1-inch chunks, cut the beans into 1-inch strips, and gently toss with the chicken. Add the celery and grapes.
5. Whisk the lemon juice, broth, and mustard in a small bowl; whisk in the tarragon, salt, and pepper. Drizzle in the olive oil in a slow stream, whisking all the while, until the dressing turns creamy, about 1 minute. Toss the salad with this dressing, taking care not to break up the potatoes. If desired, cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
