Peel and chop 1 spring onion and 2 carrots into slices. Put a frying pan on the heat with a tablespoon of oil and sauté the vegetables with 60 g of raisins for five minutes. Season with salt and pepper and add oregano and bay leaf, deglazing with the orange juice. Add 600 g of washed and drained chickpeas and cook everything for 15 minutes.

Debone 1 pickled partridge into strands and open 1 large pomegranate, removing all the seeds. In a salad bowl, add the leaves of 1 medium oak leaf lettuce, cleaned and spun dry, sprinkle with a little dressing, add the toasted bread croutons, then the shredded partridge and finally sprinkle with the pomegranate seeds.

Chicken and pomegranate salad

Remove the grains from 1/2 pomegranate. Cut 1 escarole, wash and drain very well. Arrange on a platter. Chop leftover roast chicken, removing the bone if it has one, or shred it with a fork. Wash 10-12 various colored cherry-type tomatoes and cut them in half or quarters. Add all the ingredients to the platter and mix well. Spread some of the sauce on the salad and serve the rest to the taste of the diners.
