INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 medium Beet
1 cup Mixed Greens
2 tsp Olive Oil
1 Lemon Wedge
1 tbsp Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Wash and scrub the beet thoroughly, then wrap it in aluminum foil with a drizzle (half tsp) of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Roast in the oven for about 35-40 minutes until tender.
While the beet is roasting, pat the chicken breast dry. Season on both sides with salt, pepper, and a mix of chopped fresh herbs. Squeeze half of the lemon wedge over the chicken for a bright citrus note.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining olive oil. Place the chicken breast in the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until the exterior is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the roasted beet from the oven, let it cool slightly, then peel and slice into rounds.
Arrange a bed of mixed greens on a plate. Place the sliced beet on top, and add the crispy lemon-herb chicken sliced or whole as preferred.
Finish with an extra squeeze of lemon juice over the dish and garnish with additional chopped herbs if desired. Serve immediately.
