INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
2 cups Mixed Salad Greens
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 unit Cucumber
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup Zucchini
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Mixed Herbs
PREPARATION
Begin by preparing the lemon-herb marinade: combine lemon juice, olive oil, and mixed herbs in a small bowl.
Place the chicken breast in a shallow dish and pour half of the marinade over it. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken breast for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Once done, let it rest briefly before slicing.
While the chicken is cooking, preheat your oven to 400°F and roast the red bell pepper and zucchini on a baking sheet for about 10-12 minutes until tender. Alternatively, you can pan-roast them until they soften.
In a large bowl, toss the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber slices. Add the roasted vegetables once they are slightly cooled.
Drizzle the remaining lemon-herb marinade over the salad and toss to combine.
Slice the chicken breast and serve it atop the fresh, vibrant salad, enjoying the balance of zesty, roasted flavors and lean protein.
