Soy Ginger Chicken and Winter Greens

From Whole Foods (365 Brand)

This recipe is a flavor sensation with tangy soy ginger sauce and those calcium-filled, dark leafy greens you're always trying to fit into your menu.

1/2 cup Soy Ginger Sauce (365 Brand)
2 large boneless chicken breasts, cut into thin strips
6-8 cups assorted fresh winter greens (kale, collards, mustard and/or chard)
2 TBS Olive Oil
2/3 cup julienned carrots
1/2 cup chopped scallions

In a small bowl, combine sauce and chicken. Let marinate at least 30 minutes.
Wash greens thoroughly, trip and chop roughly.
Bring a large pot of slightly salted water to boil.
Place greens in boiling water and blanch 3-4 minutes.
Drain and immediately transfer to ICE water to stop cooking and retain color.
When cool, drain and set aside.
In a large saute pan, heat olive oil over med-high heat, and saute chicken about 5 minutes until well browned.
Add carrots, scallions and cooked greens.
Saute another 3-5 minutes, tossing to mix ingredients.
Serve with more soy ginger sauce!
