Grilled Chicken Salad with Crunchy Chickpeas and Mixed Greens
Tender grilled chicken and spiced chickpeas served over a bed of mixed greens with a zesty lemon vinaigrette and a satisfyingly crisp finish.
INGREDIENTS
3 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Canned Chickpeas
2 cups Mixed Greens
1.5 teaspoons Olive Oil
1/4 Avocado
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the chickpeas.
Rinse and thoroughly pat the chickpeas dry with a paper towel, then toss them with half of the olive oil and the dried oregano.
Spread the chickpeas on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until they are golden and crunchy.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and pepper, then grill over medium-high heat for about 6 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining olive oil and lemon juice to create a light dressing.
Place the mixed greens in a large bowl and top with halved cherry tomatoes and the roasted chickpeas.
Slice the grilled chicken into strips and add it to the salad along with the sliced avocado.
Drizzle the lemon vinaigrette over the top and toss gently before serving.
