1 lb chicken breasts, skinless and boneless
▢1 tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
▢2 tbsp lemon juice
▢2 tsp dried basil
▢1/2 tsp salt
▢1/2 tsp pepper
▢1/2 tsp garlic powder
Salad Fixings
▢2-3 heads of romaine lettuce, chopped, can use another leafy green of choice
▢3 eggs, hard boiled, diced
▢1 apple, chopped, I prefer Gala, Fuji, or Red Delicious
▢1 medium avocado, ripe, sliced
▢1 small container of cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
▢1/2 cucumber, diced, can remove peel or leave it on
▢1/4 red onion, diced
Lemon Vinaigrette
▢1/4 cup light olive oil, do not use extra virgin
▢2 tsp lemon juice
▢1 tbsp orange juice
Add olive oil to saute pan or cast iron skillet. Heat pan to medium high heat.
Slice chicken horizontally to create thin cutlets. This helps us cook the chicken faster and gets us better browning on all sides.
Add chicken to hot pan. Sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried basil on top of each cutlet.
Cook until chicken has some browning on bottom side, about 3 to 5 minutes. Flip chicken.
Add lemon juice to the pan. Cook until remaining side of chicken is browned, about 5 minutes.
To assemble the salads, divide your chopped lettuce into bowls.
Top with tomatoes, apples, cucumber, hard boiled eggs, and red onion.
Slice your chicken and add it to the salads.
Add your sliced avocado at the very end to prevent browning.
Combine all Lemon Vinaigrette ingredients in a jar and shake.
Drizzle over each finished salad when you’re ready to serve!
Notes
This recipe is plenty to serve to 4 people as an entree. If you’re just making it for one I recommend going ahead and making the full recipe because this salad does beautifully when made in advance. (Just don’t add the dressing or avocado to the salads until you’re ready to serve.) It’s so much easier to eat healthy when you meal prep!If you have extra Lemon Vinaigrette leftover just store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

"They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved."
Acts 2:42-47
