Ingredients

Lemon-Dijon Dressing:

Method

Lemon-Dijon Dressing: In small bowl, whisk oil with mustard until combined; whisk in lemon juice, salt and pepper. Set aside.

Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. In nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook chicken, stirring occasionally, until golden and no longer pink inside, 6 to 8 minutes.

Whisk vinegar with honey until combined; pour over chicken. Cook, stirring, until chicken is coated and vinegar mixture starts to thicken, about 1 minute. Transfer to plate; let cool slightly.

Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine arugula, cucumber, goat cheese and chives. Drizzle dressing over top; toss to coat. Stir in chicken; top with pecans.
