Lemon-Herb Chicken with Cucumber Tomato Salad
Enjoy a bright, flavorful dish featuring lean lemon-herb chicken paired with a crisp cucumber tomato salad. The succulent chicken is lightly marinated in zesty lemon and fresh herbs, then grilled to perfection. The refreshing salad, tossed with olive oil and a hint of red onion, perfectly complements the savory main, making it an ideal balanced meal for any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 medium Lemon
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
1 tsp Fresh Thyme, chopped
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 cup sliced Cucumber
1 medium Tomato
2 slices Red Onion
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish. Squeeze the juice from half a lemon over the chicken, then add chopped parsley and thyme, a pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle with half of the olive oil (from the teaspoon, if desired, or reserve the rest for salad dressing). Let marinate for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove and let rest for a few minutes.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the salad. In a bowl, combine sliced cucumber, chopped medium tomato, and thin red onion slices. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Slice the grilled chicken and serve atop or alongside the fresh cucumber tomato salad. Enjoy the refreshing flavors and balanced meal.
