Mediterranean Bean Salad with Lemon-Herb Vinaigrette
Grilled chicken breast and hearty beans tossed with crisp cucumbers in a zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette for a refreshing, protein-packed meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup chickpeas
0.25 cup cannellini beans
1 cup cucumber
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp red onion
0.25 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the heat, let it rest for 5 minutes, then dice it into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and dried oregano to create the vinaigrette.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chickpeas, cannellini beans, diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, and finely chopped red onion.
Add the diced chicken and fresh parsley to the bowl with the bean mixture.
Drizzle the lemon-herb vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently until all ingredients are evenly coated.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
