Method
- Peel and dice both regular potatoes and sweet potatoes into small cubes. Boil them in salted boiling water until tender, then drain.
- Season the chicken breast with salt and a bit of garlic. Massage the seasoning into the meat. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
- Heat a pan over high heat. Place the chicken breast skin-side down (or simply place it in the pan) and cook until a golden crust forms. Flip and cook the other side until done. Remove from pan and let rest.
- While the chicken cooks, prepare the vegetables: tear the radicchio and lettuce by hand into bite-sized pieces. Slice the avocado and dress immediately with lemon juice to prevent browning.
- Cut the winter tomatoes (pomodoro meringa) into wedges. Also prepare the sun-dried tomatoes and capers.
- Make the dressing: in a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, abundant fresh lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, and a pinch of salt. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- Assemble the salad: arrange the radicchio and lettuce on a large plate. Add the boiled potatoes and sweet potatoes. Arrange the avocado slices, tomato wedges, sun-dried tomatoes, and capers on top. Slice the rested chicken and place over the salad. Drizzle the yogurt dressing over everything.
