Chicken and Nectarine Salad *

2 ripe nectarines, halved and pitted
1 tsp EVOO, plus 1/4 cup, divided
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
3 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 1/2 Tbsp water
2 tsp Dijon mustard
2 tsp honey
2 cups finely chopped radicchio
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
3/4 cup feta cheese

Season chicken with 1/4 tsp salt and pepper and grill until done. Brush nectarine halves lightly with 1 tsp oil. Grill nectarines until lightly charred and softened, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Let the chicken and nectarines cool on a clean cutting board for about 10 minutes, then chop into bite size pieces. Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1/4 cup oil, vinegar, water, mustard, honey and the remaining 1/4 tsp salt in a large bowl. Add lettuce, radicchio, tomatoes, cheese, chicken, nectarines. Toss well to combine. Season with pepper to taste.

Serves 5
