INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 medium Avocado
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon (juiced and zested)
2 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme, chopped)
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper, to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to prepare for baking the chicken.
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels. Season it evenly on both sides with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle the chopped fresh herbs and lemon zest over the top.
Place the chicken breast on a lightly greased baking sheet. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the top to enhance crispiness.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the exterior is crisp and golden.
While the chicken bakes, combine mixed salad greens in a bowl. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice or dice the flesh. Add the avocado to the greens.
Prepare the dressing by mixing the juice of a half lemon with the remaining olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle this dressing over the salad.
Once the chicken is done, slice it into strips and arrange on top of the salad. Optionally garnish with a few extra herbs and a light squeeze of lemon juice.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nutrient-packed, flavorful meal.
