Zesty Lemon-Herb Lentil Power Salad
Tender grilled chicken and earthy lentils tossed with crisp vegetables in a bright, zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette for a refreshing and nutrient-dense meal.
INGREDIENTS
4.5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked green lentils
1 cup English cucumber
0.5 cup red bell pepper
2 tbsp red onion
1.5 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Grill or pan-sear the chicken over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through, then set aside to rest before dicing into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked lentils, chopped cucumber, diced red bell pepper, and minced red onion.
In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and chopped parsley to create the dressing.
Add the diced chicken to the lentil and vegetable mixture.
Drizzle the lemon-herb dressing over the salad and toss thoroughly to ensure everything is well-coated.
Serve immediately or chill for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
