• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. • Trim, peel, and cut carrots on a diagonal into 1/2-inch-thick pieces. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. • Roast on top rack until lightly browned and tender, 20-25 minutes. • Let cool for 5 minutes before adding to salad in step 5.

• Meanwhile, remove and discard any large stems from kale; roughly chop any larger leaves. Halve, core, and thinly slice half the apple (whole apple for 4 servings).

• Place kale in a large bowl and lightly season with salt. Using your hands, massage kale (similar to how you would knead dough), until leaves are tender, 30-60 seconds. TIP: To make kale even more tender, add a drizzle of olive oil along with the salt before massaging.

• Pat chicken* dry with paper towels and season all over with Brown Sugar Bourbon Seasoning, salt, and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, 5-7 minutes per side. • Transfer to a cutting board; let rest at least 5 minutes before slicing and adding to salad in step 6.

• Add cranberries, roasted carrots, and sliced apple to bowl with kale. Season with salt and pepper. • Reserve half a packet of Honey Dijon Dressing (1 packet for 4 servings) in a small bowl for serving. Drizzle salad with remaining Honey Dijon Dressing to taste; toss to combine.

• Thinly slice chicken crosswise. • Divide salad between bowls and top with chicken. Drizzle with reserved Honey Dijon Dressing. Sprinkle with sunflower seeds and serve.
