Preparation
Grill the chicken
Heat the BBQ on high, making sure to oil the grill first. Pat the chicken* dry and drizzle with oil; season with the spices and S&P. Add to the BBQ and grill, 6 to 8 min. on one side, until partially cooked. Flip and grill, brushing with the BBQ sauce, 6 to 8 min., until cooked through.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, remove the kale leaves from the stems; roughly chop the leaves. Peel and cut the chayote into matchsticks.
Make the salad
In a large bowl, combine the kale, a drizzle of oil and S&P. Massage, 1 to 2 min., until softened. Add the chayote, salad topper and vinaigrette.
Plate your dish
Divide the salad between your plates. Top with the chicken (slice beforehand if desired). Bon appétit!
