Preparation steps

1.

Rinse chicken breasts and cook in lightly boiling salted water for 10 minutes over low heat. Then remove and leave to cool.

2.

Meanwhile, rinse 1 orange under hot water, rub dry and peel in fine strips; then peel both oranges so that all white is removed. Cut out fruit fillets between the separating skins, reserving the juice. Wash arugula and spin dry. Halve dates lengthwise, pit and cut into wedges. Coarsely chop almonds. Wash thyme, shake dry and pluck off leaves. Remove the pomegranate seeds from the fruit.

3.

For the dressing, mix orange and lemon juice with half of the orange zest, thyme, salt, pepper and oil.

4.

Cut chicken breast fillets into strips and mix with orange fillets, dates and arugula and arrange on a platter. Sprinkle everything with pomegranate seeds, remaining orange zest and remaining thyme and drizzle with the dressing.
