INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (142g)
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens (85g)
1 portion diced Cucumber (40g)
1/2 cup halved Cherry Tomatoes (75g)
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper (50g)
1/8 medium Red Onion (15g)
1/4 cup Roasted Chickpeas (42g)
1 tbsp Olive Oil (14g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice (15g)
1 tsp Dijon Mustard (5g)
1 tbsp Mixed Fresh Herbs (3g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Season the chicken breast with your favorite dried herbs, salt, and pepper. Place it on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Once cooked, allow it to rest before slicing.
On a separate baking sheet, toss the chickpeas with a light drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven for about 15 minutes until crunchy.
While the chicken and chickpeas are roasting, chop the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, and red onion. In a large salad bowl, combine these vegetables with the mixed salad greens.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, Dijon mustard, the remaining olive oil (if any, adjust based on your taste preference), and chopped fresh herbs to create a zesty vinaigrette.
Slice the roasted chicken and add it to the salad. Sprinkle the crispy roasted chickpeas on top.
Drizzle the prepared vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to mix all ingredients well.
Serve immediately and enjoy a balanced, flavorful meal.
