INGREDIENTS

5 oz Chicken breast

0.5 cup Chickpeas

0.5 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil

1 tsp Lemon zest

1 tbsp Lemon juice

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0.5 tsp Dried oregano

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

1 cup Fresh baby spinach

PREPARATION

• 1

  Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and season both sides with half of the sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

• 2

  Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then pat them thoroughly dry with a clean kitchen towel to ensure they achieve maximum crunch.

• 3

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

• 4

  Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F, then remove to a plate to rest.

• 5

  In the same skillet, add the chickpeas and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the skins are blistered and crispy.

• 6

  Turn off the heat and stir the lemon zest, lemon juice, dried oregano, and the remaining salt and pepper into the chickpeas to coat.

• 7

  Slice the rested chicken breast and serve it over a bed of fresh baby spinach, topped with the warm, zesty chickpeas.
