INGREDIENTS
90 grams Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 cup Arugula
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill for about 4-5 minutes per side or until cooked through. Once done, let it rest before slicing into strips.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, halved cherry tomatoes, and fresh arugula.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
Add the sliced grilled chicken to the salad, drizzle with the dressing, and gently toss until everything is evenly coated.
Serve immediately and enjoy a light, balanced lunch.
