This recipe was inspired for my Grandmother Carolyn…her favourite meal is rotisserie chicken.  For her latest birthday I made this for her, she loved the meal and is even crazier about the Dijon vinaigrette…it has become a staple dressing for almost everything she eats!  It has encouraged her to plant almost 15 garlic bulbs around her home so she’ll always have fresh garlic for her dressing!

Ingredients

  

• Boneless skinless meat from 1 rotisserie chicken (about 4 cups), organic, free-range is best
• 1 lb small red- and white- skinned potatoes or thumb potatoes
• ¼ tbsp sea salt
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard Annie’s Naturals Organic
• 2 tbsp white wine vinegar
• 1 large clove garlic minced
• 1 tsp real honey
• 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• 6 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp capers drained (read below about fun facts on capers)*
• ½ bunch watercress, stemmed or baby spinach

Instructions

 

• Place the potatoes in a medium pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook for 20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
• Whisk mustard, vinegar, garlic, and honey in a medium bowl. Add the salt and the pepper. Continue whisking, adding the oil in a thin, steady stream until a medium-thick vinaigrette is formed.
• Halve the potatoes; set aside.
• Shred chicken removing all bone and combine with the halved potatoes.
• Gently toss chicken mixture with the vinaigrette.
• Fold in the watercress and capers just before serving.

Notes

Foodie Fun Fact: Capers have a history of being used medicinally to treat inflammatory conditions such as rheumatism. Capers contain the bioflavonoids of rutin and quercetin, both of which have powerful antioxidant properties.
