Mediterranean Lentil Salad with Feta
Zesty lemon-dressed lentils tossed with tender grilled chicken, crisp cucumbers, and creamy feta for a refreshing and protein-packed Mediterranean feast.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
0.75 cup cooked green lentils
0.5 oz feta cheese
0.5 cup diced cucumber
0.5 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp minced red onion
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of the sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano, then grill or pan-sear until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Allow the chicken to rest for five minutes before slicing it into bite-sized strips or cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked green lentils, diced cucumbers, halved cherry tomatoes, and minced red onion.
In a small glass jar or bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and the remaining sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano to create the vinaigrette.
Drizzle the dressing over the lentil and vegetable mixture, tossing gently to ensure every ingredient is evenly coated.
Transfer the salad to a serving bowl, top with the sliced chicken and crumbled feta cheese, and serve immediately while fresh.
