Savor the bright flavors of citrus-infused grilled chicken paired with a refreshing medley of crisp garden vegetables. This dish balances tender, juicy chicken with a light, aromatic dressing and seasonal produce for a satisfying meal that's as nutritious as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast, grilled
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (Marinade)
2 cups Mixed Greens
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 cup Cucumber Slices
1/4 cup Red Onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar
1 teaspoon Olive Oil (Dressing)
PREPARATION
In a shallow dish, combine the lemon juice and olive oil reserved for the marinade. Add in your choice of fresh herbs (such as thyme, rosemary, or basil if desired) and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the chicken breast in the marinade, turning to coat evenly, and let it sit for at least 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is grilling, prepare the salad by adding mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and red onion slices in a bowl.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar and the olive oil reserved for the dressing. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Once the chicken is done, allow it to rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips. Top the salad with the sliced chicken and drizzle with the dressing.
Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant flavors of the herb-citrus grilled chicken paired with fresh garden salad.
