Lentil Herb Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette
Sautéed chicken and earthy lentils tossed with crisp vegetables and fresh herbs, finished with a zesty lemon vinaigrette for a bright, satisfying crunch.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
0.75 cup cooked brown lentils
1 cup diced English cucumber
0.5 cup diced red bell pepper
0.25 cup diced red onion
1 tbsp hemp seeds
0.25 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tbsp chopped fresh mint
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp red wine vinegar
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper, then sauté in a non-stick pan over medium heat until cooked through.
Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before dicing it into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken, cooked lentils, cucumber, red bell pepper, and red onion.
Add the chopped parsley, fresh mint, and hemp seeds to the bowl, tossing gently to distribute the herbs and seeds.
In a small separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, sea salt, and black pepper until emulsified.
Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and toss thoroughly to ensure every ingredient is evenly coated.
Serve immediately at room temperature or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to deepen.
