INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 cups Romaine Lettuce
0.33 cup roasted Canned Chickpeas (~50g)
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Light Caesar Dressing
1 tablespoon Parmesan Cheese
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with your favorite herbs such as rosemary and thyme, along with salt and pepper.
Grill the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven broiler to crisp the chickpeas. Toss the rinsed canned chickpeas with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet and broil for 5-7 minutes, stirring once, until they are crispy.
In a large bowl, combine the shredded romaine lettuce with light Caesar dressing and lemon juice.
Top the salad with sliced grilled chicken, sprinkle the crispy chickpea croutons over the top, and finish with a dusting of grated Parmesan cheese.
Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant flavors and textures of this healthy, balanced meal.
