Chicken, Cheese and Rocket Salad

Ingredients:

150g Rocket leaves
2 Celery sticks
1/2 Cucumber, sliced
2 Spring onions, trimmed and sliced
2 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley
25g Walnut pieces
350g Boneless roast chicken, sliced
125g Stilton cheese, cubed
Handful of seedless red grapes, halved
Salt and pepper


Dressing:

2 tbsp Olive oil
1 tbsp Sherry vinegar
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp Chopped mixed herbs




Method:

Wash the rocket leaves, pat dry with kitchen paper and put them into a large salad bowl.
Add celery, cucumber, spring onions, parsley and walnuts and mix together well.
Transfer into a large serving platter. Arrange the chicken slices over the salad, then scatter over the cheese. Add the red grapes. Season well with salt and pepper.

To make the dressing, put all the ingredients into a screw-top jar and shake well. Alternatively, put them into a bowl and mix together well. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and serve.
