Pan-Roasted Tomato and Chickpea Salad

From NutritionAction.com

For dinner for four, serve this savoury and slightly sweet salad with a roasted four-pound chicken and some crusty bread.

Total time to prepare: 15 minutes

Ingredients:
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
3 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
¼ cup orange juice
1 Tbs. red wine vinegar
½ tsp. kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
6 cups baby arugula
2 cups basil leaves
1 15 oz. can no-salt-added chickpeas, drained

Directions:
• In a large non-stick pan, sauté the tomatoes, cut side down, in 1 Tbs. of the oil until well browned, 3-5 minutes. Remove from the pan and reserve.
• Add the remaining oil and sauté the garlic for 30 seconds. Stir in the juice and simmer to reduce by half, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar, salt, and plenty of black pepper.
