1
Prep and cook the chicken
- Pat the chicken dry with a paper towel; season generously with salt and pepper.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the chicken and cook, turning once, until slightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking, turning occasionally, until firm and cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the salad and the dressing.
2
Make the salad and dressing
- Cut a small corner from the beet packaging and drain off any excess liquid; coarsely chop the beets.
- Trim the root ends from the scallions; thinly slice the scallions.
- Juice the lemon.
In a large bowl, combine the beets, scallions, arugula, 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, stir together the lemon tahini, dill, and 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
