Ingredients
- 1 (8-ounce) package Fresh Express® French Blue Cheese Salad Kit
- 1 half chicken with bones removed
- 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 tablespoon salt
- 1/3 cup white wine vinegar
- 1 cup neutral oil
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the wet ingredients and oil. Whisk in the spices, then add the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Cover and let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Meanwhile heat a sauté pan over medium-high heat.
- Once the pan is hot, place the chicken skin-side down and press with a pan or weight to encourage even browning.
- When a crispy crust has formed on the skin, remove the weight and flip the chicken.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and cook until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- In a bowl, toss all salad ingredients until well combined.
- Plate the salad and place the cooked chicken on top.
