Sunny's Grilled Chicken and Kale Salad with Sunny's Creamy "Equal-Parts" Harissa Salad Dressing

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup harissa paste
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/4 cup packed chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 cup chopped scallion, white and green parts (2 to 3 scallions)
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • One 8-ounce container kale salad mix with red cabbage and carrots
  • 2 grilled chicken breasts, chopped, or 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 2 handfuls seedless red grapes, halved
  • 2 handfuls strawberries, hulled and quartered
  • 2 handfuls multi-colored (red and yellow) cherry tomatoes, halved

Instructions

  1. For the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk together the harissa paste, mayonnaise, buttermilk, cilantro, scallions and a few grinds of black pepper.
  2. For the salad: In the same large bowl, add the kale salad mix, chicken, grapes, strawberries and tomatoes. Use 2 serving spoons or tongs to toss and coat everything with the dressing on the bottom. Serve, but this is a salad that actually will hold 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator without the kale wilting!
