Grilled Grapes and Chicken Salad
- 8 ounces red grapes, broken into small bunches
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 lemon, juiced
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 stalks celery with leaves, sliced into 1/3-inch pieces
- 2 grilled chicken breast halves, thinly sliced crosswise
- 1 Granny Smith apple
- 1/2 cup lightly toasted walnut halves or pieces
- 4 Bibb lettuce leaves, for serving
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
- For the grilled grapes: Drizzle the bunched grapes with the olive oil, turning to coat.
- Place in a grill basket on the grill and cook, gently turning to cook evenly, until the grapes are slightly soft and beginning to char and burst, 3 to 4 minutes.
- When cool enough to handle, remove the grapes from the stems and set aside.
- For the dressing: Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard and lemon juice.
- Continue to whisk while slowly streaming in the olive oil.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- For the salad: Add the celery and chicken to the bowl with the dressing.
- Core, halve, then slice the apple into 1/4-inch slices, and add to the bowl.
- Add the walnuts and cooled grapes to the bowl and toss to coat everything with the dressing.
- To serve, line a salad plate with the lettuce leaves.
- Spoon a quarter of the chicken salad over the top of each leaf.
- Serve immediately.
