Chickpea Cucumber Salad with Lemon-Herb Chicken
Pan-seared chicken breast seasoned with aromatic herbs served over a crisp cucumber and chickpea salad for a refreshing crunch.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup chickpeas
1 cup cucumber
0.25 cup red onion
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 oz feta cheese
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with garlic powder, 0.25 tsp of dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a light spray of oil and cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken cooks, rinse and drain the chickpeas and dice the cucumber and red onion into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, the remaining 0.25 tsp of dried oregano, and chopped fresh parsley.
Combine the chickpeas, cucumber, and red onion in a large bowl and toss with the prepared lemon-herb dressing.
Slice the cooked chicken breast and serve it over the salad, topping the dish with crumbled feta cheese for a salty finish.
