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 ½ the spices and S&P. Add to the BBQ and grill, 6 to 8 min. per side, until cooked through. Let rest before slicing.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, thinly slice the string peas lengthwise (or cut lengthwise into thirds). Remove the kale leaves from the stems; thinly slice the leaves. Pick the dill fronds off the stems; roughly chop the fronds.
Make the vinaigrette
In a medium bowl, whisk 1 tbsp oil, 1 tbsp water (double both for 4 portions), the cashew butter, vinegar, garlic, ½ the dill, the remaining spices and S&P.
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 string peas and vinaigrette.
Plate your dish
Divide the salad between your plates. Top with the chicken. Garnish with the remaining dill. Bon appétit!
