Slice the little gem lettuce into rough strips and distribute over a plate. Tear the smoked chicken into pieces and scatter over the lettuce.
Toast the pecans briefly dry in a frying pan until fragrant, then chop them roughly. Sprinkle the nuts and pomegranate seeds over the salad. The pomegranate adds a fresh, slightly sweet note without added sugar.
Whisk together the olive oil, mustard, lemon juice and some black pepper until smooth. Pour the dressing over the salad and serve immediately. The chicken provides protein and the pecans healthy fats for a satisfying lunch.
