This is the kind of salad that makes you forget you're eating healthy. Maybe it's the Parmesan crust on the chicken. Maybe it's the tangy sweet dressing. Just remember, it's a good source of protein, fiber, and vitamin C,

Directions
- For dressing, whisk together 1/3 cup olive oil, balsamic vinegar, raspberry jam, Dijon mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper; set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, bring 1 quart of water to boiling. Add asparagus and cook 2 minutes. Meanwhile, fill a large bowl halfway with ice water. Drain asparagus and plunge into ice water to cool.
- In a shallow bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, thyme and remaining salt; set aside. In a small bowl, beat eggs with a fork. Cut chicken breasts in half lengthwise. Coat chicken pieces with breadcrumb mixture, then beaten egg, and once again with breadcrumb mixture. In a nonstick skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add chicken pieces. Cook on all sides until well-browned and cooked through, about 15 minutes, covering if needed. Remove to cutting board to cool slightly. Cut into 1/2-inch thick slices.
- Arrange arugula, lettuce and endive on a serving platter or individual salad plates. Top with asparagus, strawberries and chicken. Serve with dressing.
