Ingredients

Pomegranate Dressing

1 cup pomegranate juice
½ - 1 tsp honey
Optional: ¼ tsp chili
½ tsp garlic, minced
1 - 2 TBSP lemon juice
1 tsp Dijon mustard
¼ tsp ground pepper
½ tsp thyme
2 TBSP olive oil

Salad:

2 cups rockets, romaine or bibb lettuce, hand-torn
½ cup Persian or English cucumber, halved and sliced ¼ "
1 TBSP chives or green onions, chopped
1 hardboiled egg, sliced into 4 lengthwise
¼ cup Feta cheese, crumbled
1 cup diced watermelon
1 TBSP cacao nibs
Optional: 2 TBSP slivered almonds
Optional: Pomegranate seeds for color

Instructions

Start the pomegranate dressing. Reduce the pomegranate juice to a sauce: in a medium saucepan bring the pomegranate juice, honey, and optional chili to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, 12 minutes until the liquid is reduced to ¼ cup. Set aside to cool.*
At the same time cook the egg in a cup water in a small pot for 12 minutes.
Continue making the dressing: in a small bowl combine minced garlic, lemon juice, mustard, ground pepper and thyme. Add the ¼ cup reduced pomegranate-honey sauce. Slowly stream in the oil, whisking constantly. Taste and add salt if necessary.
Toss the lettuce in the dressing and place in a serving bowl.
Arrange the cucumbers, chives, egg, feta, hardboiled egg, and melons on top. Sprinkle with cacao nibs before serving. Optional: top salad with slivered almonds and pomegranate seeds.
