Rosé Vinaigrette
Directions
- Heat a grill pan, or heavy bottom skillet, over medium high heat.
- Mix the Cancale, OMG, and black pepper to combine.
- Coat the slices of chicken with olive oil and season with them with the spice mixture.
In the hot pan, sear each size of thinly sliced chicken breast to golden brown on both sides, or until chicken is just cooked. Keep in mind thin slices cook quickly and will continue cooking slightly even after removing from the pan.
- When all slices have been seared, remove them to a serving platter or individual plates.
Toss the arugula and fennel and plate with the chicken.
For a little extra finishing touch, drizzle the chicken with a little extra rose vinaigrette and enjoy!
