Zesty Lemon Herb Lentil Salad
Tender grilled chicken and earthy lentils tossed with crisp vegetables in a bright, zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette for a refreshing and hearty meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken breast
0.75 cup Cooked brown lentils
0.5 cup Diced cucumber
0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp Red onion
0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Fresh lemon juice
1 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with half of the dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium-high heat until fully cooked, then set aside to rest for 5 minutes before dicing into bite-sized cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and the remaining dried oregano, salt, and pepper to create the dressing.
Add the cooked lentils, diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion to the bowl with the dressing.
Fold in the diced chicken and fresh parsley, tossing gently to ensure every ingredient is coated in the zesty vinaigrette.
Serve immediately or let it chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
