Categories     Salad

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 tablespoons olive oil
juice of 1 lemon ((1/4 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice))
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
2 teaspoons dried basil
2 teaspoons garlic (, minced)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
cracked pepper (, to taste)
1 pound (500 g) skinless, boneless chicken thigh fillets (or chicken breasts)
4 cups Romaine ((or Cos) lettuce leaves, washed and dried)
1 large cucumber (diced)
2 Roma tomatoes (diced)
1 red onion (sliced)
1 avocado (sliced)
1/3 cup pitted Kalamata olives ((or black olives), sliced (optional))
Lemon wedges (to serve)

Steps:

  • Whisk together all of the marinade/dressing ingredients in a large jug. Pour out half of the marinade into a large, shallow dish. Refrigerate the remaining marinade to use as the dressing later.
  • Add the chicken to the marinade in the bowl; marinade chicken for 15-30 minutes (or up to two hours in the refrigerator if time allows). While waiting for the chicken, prepare all of the salad ingredients and mix in a large salad bowl.
  • Once chicken is ready, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a grill pan or a grill plate over medium-high heat. Grill chicken on both sides until browned and completely cooked through.
  • Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes; slice and arrange over salad. Drizzle salad with the remaining UNTOUCHED dressing. Serve with lemon wedges.

HERBY LEMON GRILLED CHICKEN BREAST SALAD

Put this Herby Lemon Grilled Chicken Breast Salad on your menus for bright, delicious meals all summer long!

Provided by Brenda | A Farmgirl's Dabbles

Categories     Salads & Dressings

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 recipe Herby Lemon Vinaigrette (substitute lemon thyme for the regular thyme for even more lemony flavor)
4 to 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
arugula
extra virgin olive oil
1 to 2 lemons, halved
1 to 2 c. halved grape tomatoes
fresh lemon thyme or thyme leaves

Steps:

  • Place a bit of the herby lemon vinaigrette in a low, wide dish. Then pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about 1/2" (I place the chicken in a large resealable plastic baggie and pound with a kitchen mallet) and arrange it in the dish. Add more of the vinaigrette, as needed, and spoon it over the chicken to cover. Reserve any unused vinaigrette for topping a fresh green salad or veggies. Cover chicken and place in refrigerator to marinate for one to two hours.
  • Remove chicken from refrigerator. Heat grill to medium to medium-high heat, about 400° F. Make sure grates are scrubbed clean and then oiled. (To oil the grates, add some canola oil or olive oil to a small bowl. Then fold a heavy paper towel a few times to make a smaller square. With a tongs, grasp the folded paper towel and dip it into the oil until the paper towel is drenched. Then run the paper towel over the grates, repeating until all grill grates are thoroughly oiled.)
  • Place cut sides of lemon halves on grill for just a minute or two, until charred and softened. Remove to a plate to cool. Oil grill grates again and place marinated chicken breasts on the grates. Grill for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until nicely charred. Flip chicken and grill for another 3 to 4 minutes on the second side, until nicely charred and an instant read thermometer reaches 160°F. Then pull the chicken off the grill, to a platter, to rest for a few minutes and continue to cook to 165°F. This will help to ensure that your chicken doesn't dry out from over cooking it.
  • While chicken is resting, arrange arugula on a platter. Drizzle just a bit of olive oil over the top, followed by a squeeze of grilled lemon halves. Add grape tomatoes, course salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Arrange chicken breasts simply over the top of the salad and then sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves.
