Ingredients

• 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• ½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
• 4 peaches, halved and pitted
• 1 tablespoon chopped shallot
• 8 cups baby arugula

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Whisk 1/4 cup olive oil, balsamic vinegar, shallot, Dijon mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a bowl until dressing is well mixed.

Step 3

Brush 1 teaspoon oil onto cut-side of peaches.

Step 4

Place peaches, cut-side down, onto grill and cook until heated through, about 4 minutes. Transfer peaches to a plate.

Step 5

Brush remaining oil onto both sides of chicken breasts and season with salt.

Step 6

Cook chicken on grill until no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Slice chicken into thin pieces and cut peaches into 1/2-inch thick pieces.

Step 7

Toss arugula and dressing together in a bowl. Divide dressed arugula among plates; top with peaches and chicken.
