INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
100 g Chickpeas
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 medium Lemon
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Rosemary, Thyme)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pat dry the chicken breast and marinate it with freshly squeezed lemon juice (using about half of the lemon), a pinch of salt, pepper, and the chopped fresh herbs.
On a baking sheet, toss the chickpeas with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Roast them in the oven for about 25-30 minutes until they turn crispy.
Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Sear the chicken on each side for about 5-6 minutes until golden and cooked through.
While the chicken cooks, gently toss the fresh spinach in a bowl with the remaining lemon juice for a bright, fresh base.
Slice the chicken and arrange it over the spinach, then top with the roasted chickpeas for a satisfying crunch.
Finish with a garnish of extra fresh herbs and a lemon wedge, if desired.
