INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Lemon
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 cup Cucumber slices
1/8 small Red Onion
1 oz Feta Cheese
1 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme)
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season with salt, pepper, lemon zest, and chopped fresh herbs.
Drizzle half of the olive oil over the chicken and let it marinate for 10 minutes to absorb the citrus and herbal flavors.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining olive oil and sear the chicken breast for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Let it rest briefly before slicing.
In a large bowl, combine mixed salad greens, halved cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and thinly sliced red onion.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Top the salad with crumbled feta cheese and a light drizzle of olive oil if desired.
Slice the crispy lemon-herb chicken and place on top or serve alongside the salad. Garnish with additional fresh herbs and a final squeeze of lemon juice.
