Preparation steps

1.

Rinse the chicken breasts, pat dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1-2 tablespoons hot oil over high heat and sear the chicken breasts until golden brown on both sides, around 1-2 minutes. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 minutes, until cooked through. 

2.

Rinse the plums, cut in half, pit and slice. Rinse the lettuce and watercress, spin dry, trim and pluck into small pieces. Rinse the pepper, cut in half, remove the seeds and pith and cut into fine strips. Peel the onion, halve and cut into strips.

3.

Whisk together the vinegar, lemon juice, honey, remaining oil and 1-2 tablespoons water and season with salt and pepper.

4.

Slice the chicken breasts and arrange on serving plates along with the salad ingredients. Serve drizzled with the dressing.
