Lukewarm autumn salad

A salad is often associated with summer. Jet shows how to make a lukewarm salad that is perfect for autumn.

  • 500 g cooked beets
  • 400 g sweet potato cubes
  • 8 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 5 g verse dragon
  • 400 g chicken fillet
  • 2 tablespoons of honey

Method · 50 min
  1. Preheat the oven to 200 °C.
  2. Peel the parsnips and cut into pieces of approx. 2 cm. Drain the beetroot and cut into cubes.
  3. Spread the parsnip, beetroot, and sweet potato cubes over a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. Roast the autumn vegetables in the oven for 20 minutes. Stir halfway through the baking time.
  5. Finely chop the tarragon. Drizzle the chicken with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle the chicken all over with the tarragon, pepper, and salt.
  6. Heat a frying pan without oil or butter and fry the chicken for 10 minutes until cooked through on all sides. Then cut into slices.
  7. Cut the pears lengthwise into quarters, remove the core, and cut into wedges.
  8. Heat a frying pan without oil or butter and toast the seed mix for 3 minutes.
  9. Remove the outer leaves of the romaine, rinse the lettuce well, and cut or tear into coarse pieces.
  10. Divide the lettuce, autumn vegetables, chicken, and pear among 4 plates. Drizzle with the dressing and sprinkle the seed mix over it.
  11. Whisk the mustard, honey, white wine vinegar, and 6 tablespoons of olive oil into a dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Parsnip is sometimes called the forgotten vegetable, but I think that's nonsense! It is such an incredibly tasty vegetable. It is related to the orange carrot, but is much sweeter. Children love it too.
