Grilled Chicken Spinach Salad with Chickpeas
A fresh bed of baby spinach topped with grilled chicken and protein-rich chickpeas, tossed in a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette with a satisfyingly crisp cucumber crunch.
INGREDIENTS
1.25 oz Grilled Chicken Breast, sliced
3 tbsp Chickpeas, rinsed and drained
2 cups Baby Spinach
0.5 cup Cucumber, sliced
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes, halved
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1.5 tsp Sunflower Seeds
PREPARATION
Whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice in a small bowl to create a light dressing, seasoning with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper if desired.
Grill the chicken breast over medium-high heat until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F, then slice into thin strips.
Place the baby spinach in a large salad bowl and top with the sliced cucumber and halved cherry tomatoes.
Add the rinsed chickpeas and the sliced grilled chicken to the bowl.
Drizzle the prepared lemon-herb dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat.
Garnish with the sunflower seeds for an extra layer of texture before serving.
