Preparation

Grill the chicken
- Heat the BBQ on high (or pan on medium-high), making sure to oil the grill first.
- Halve the orange; juice ½. Cut away the peel and white pith from the remaining ½ and slice into rounds. Quarter the rounds.
- In a large bowl, make the vinaigrette by combining the orange juice, ginger, vinegar, honey, tahini, sesame oil and S&P. Transfer ⅓ of the vinaigrette to a small bowl.
- Pat the chicken* dry; rub with a drizzle of oil and S&P.
- Add to the BBQ (or pan) and grill, occasionally brushing with the reserved vinaigrette, 6 to 8 min. per side, until cooked through.
- Transfer to a cutting board and let rest before slicing.

Mise en place
- Meanwhile, roughly chop the lettuce.
- Cut the string peas crosswise into thirds.

Make the salad
- To the bowl of remaining vinaigrette, add the lettuce, string peas, orange and cashews; toss well.

Plate your dish
- Divide the salad between your plates.
- Top with the chicken. Bon appétit!
