Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 shallot, finely minced
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 t honey
  • 1/2 t red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 t kosher salt
  • 2 bunches lacinato or dinosaur kale, stems removed and torn into bite size pieces
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 1 cup pomegranite seeds
  • 3 stalks celery, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups chopped roast chicken (optional)
  • 8 medjool dates, pitted and chopped (about 3/4 cup)
  • 11 bulb fennel, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup toasted almonds
  • 3 ounces goat cheese, crumbled

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the shallot, lemon and honey. Toss kale with dressing using your hands to really coat each kale piece. Set aside for 20 minutes. Toss with olive oil, again using your hands to really coat each piece of kale. You can continue to make the salad at this point, or refrigerate overnight before finishing salad.
  2. Add pomegranate seeds, celery, chicken, dates, fennel, almonds and goat cheese to the kale. Toss well and serve.
