Preparation
Mise en place
Heat the BBQ on high, making sure to oil the grill first. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Remove the stem ends of the string beans. Halve and peel the shallot.
Grill the chicken & shallot
Pat the chicken* dry with paper towel; season with ⅔ of the spices and S&P. Grill on the BBQ (or in a grill pan heated with a drizzle of oil on medium-high, partially covered), 6 to 8 min. per side, until cooked through. In the final 5 min., add the shallot. Transfer to a cutting board.
Blanch the string beans
Meanwhile, add the string beans to the pot of boiling water and boil, 1 to 3 min., until crisp-tender. Drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water. Once cool, drain and halve crosswise on an angle.
Make the salad
Halve the shallot lengthwise; separate the petals. In a medium bowl, combine the cabbage, string beans, shallot, vinaigrette, remaining spices and S&P.
Make the pesto sour cream
In a small bowl, combine the pesto, sour cream and S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the chicken (slice beforehand if desired) and salad between your plates. Top the chicken with a spoonful of the pesto sour cream. Serve the remaining pesto sour cream on the side. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking poultry to a minimum internal temperature of 74°C.
