INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Chickpeas (canned, drained)
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 cup Cucumber slices
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, chopped fresh herbs, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
Place the chicken breast on a baking tray and rub it with half of the herb marinade. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken is roasting, drain and rinse the chickpeas and place them in a bowl. Toss with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a dash of olive oil if desired.
Prepare the salad by combining mixed greens, halved cherry tomatoes, and cucumber slices in a large bowl.
Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.
Add the sliced chicken and seasoned chickpeas to the salad, then drizzle with the remaining herb dressing.
Toss lightly to combine all flavors and serve immediately.
