Herb-Citrus Grilled Chicken with Fresh Mediterranean Salad
Enjoy a vibrant plate of herb-infused citrus grilled chicken paired with a refreshing Mediterranean salad. The juicy chicken is marinated in a zesty blend of orange and lemon, accented with fresh herbs, and is perfectly grilled, while the crisp salad features garden-fresh vegetables, tangy feta, and briny olives, all lightly dressed to let the natural flavors shine.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 medium Orange
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (marinade)
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
1 tsp Fresh Rosemary
2 cups Mixed Greens
1/2 medium Cucumber
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes (halved)
2 tbsp Red Onion (sliced)
1 oz Kalamata Olives
1 oz Feta Cheese
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (dressing)
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine the juice of 1/2 orange, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil, fresh thyme, and rosemary. Stir to create a marinade.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Allow it to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes for enhanced flavor.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from heat and let rest briefly before slicing.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine mixed greens, sliced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese.
Drizzle the salad with 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice. Toss gently to coat evenly.
Serve the sliced grilled chicken atop the Mediterranean salad and enjoy your balanced, refreshing meal.
