INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Marinade)
2 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Fresh Rosemary
Salt and Black Pepper (to taste)
2 cups Arugula
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 cup Cucumber slices
1/4 cup Red Onion slices
2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Dressing)
PREPARATION
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and drizzle with 2 tsp of olive oil, 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, and sprinkle with 1 tsp of rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Allow it to marinate for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through and golden brown on the exterior. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of fresh arugula, 1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes, 1/2 cup cucumber slices, and 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion.
Drizzle 2 tsp of extra virgin olive oil over the salad and toss gently to coat. Add a squeeze of lemon juice if desired and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Slice the grilled chicken and serve atop the fresh arugula salad. Enjoy immediately for a vibrant, protein-packed meal.
