2.Meanwhile, using a zester, zest rind from half the orange in long thin strips. Peel orange, cut orange into segments, reserving 1½ tablespoons of juice.
3.To make dressing; combine juices, rind, thyme and oil in a small jug. Season with pepper.
4.Remove seeds from pomegranate; reserve.

6.Arrange rocket on a large serving plate. Drizzle with a little dressing. Top with chicken, orange segments, dates, pomegranate seeds and nuts. Drizzle with remaining dressing.
