About a month ago, the good people over at POM wonderful sent me a package of their 100% pure pomegranate juice to try out. Since it got to the house I’ve been tying to figure out a way to do something a bit original with it, and I think I hit the nail on the head with this one. The pomegranate reduction was most definitely the star of the show here and I urge all of you to go grab the ingredients for this and give it a shot. You’ll be glad you did, I promise!
The fennel and apple salad was a “by the seat of my pants” creation, but no less worthy than the reduction. It could serve well as a side salad for any meal and has a wonderful flavor, both with and without the pomegranate reduction. both components paired perfectly with the chicken, but would go equally well with pork or duck. I can’t wait to try a few more combinations!
And Please don’t let the complicated name on this dish scare you away from trying it. There really isn’t anything complicated about it. In reality it is a combination of three very simple recipes. (Or if you would rather think of it as a complete recipe, it’s a mildly complicated dish with three simple steps.) The reduction can be made up to two weeks in advance if you think you would have difficulty making it on the same evening, so prep can be spread out over time.
Have fun with it!
