This hearty arugula salad with roasted chicken and potatoes makes for the perfect lunch or dinner recipe and definitely being enjoyed as part of the Summer of Smoothies and Salads.
Last week I got the cutest message from my husbands’ grandma “Phi I have to let you know what just happen, I bought a package of arugula, which I very seldom do and I have chicken breast out, so I googled a recipe for chicken and arugula, as I’m going through the list one sounded good so I tapped on it not knowing whose it was and your pretty smiley face appeared. What a joy, now I’m off to make your recipe.”
She was talking about this crispy chicken and arugula salad! It totally made my day…and got me thinking of chicken and arugula…because I too had chicken and arugula in the fridge.
I love peppery arugula and chicken and lemon and potatoes are just such a great compliment!
This arugula salad with roasted chicken and potatoes comes together so nicely, it’s also a great sheet pan meal. I have a love of sheet pan recipes, because you just line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and then when you’re done roasting clean up is a breeze!
What I also love about this arugula salad is that it can be served with the chicken and potatoes warm, or cold.

Love the recipe. My fave salad topping is definitely cranberries.
My new favorite salad topping is Manitoba Harvest Hemp Hearts. They have a delicious nutty flavor and have more protein, iron and omegas than chia or flax seeds. I was surprised to find hemp hearts in my Club Store and snatched up a big bag.
oh that’s so delicious, I’m going to have to be on the look out for hemp hearts!
This one sounds very good, have to get another bag of arugula, they don’t always have here.
May you, Nick and Ben ave a happy and safe 4th of July
Love, Rita
