{Fit for entertaining this weekend!}
2-3 servings
Marinade/Dressing:
2 Tbsp olive oil
juice from 1 fresh lemon
2 Tbsp dried parsley
2 Tbsp dried basil
2 Tbsp garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
cracked pepper, to taste (1 pound) 4 skinless, boneless chicken thigh fillets
Salad:
4 cups Romaine (or mixed) lettuce leaves, washed and dried
1 large cucumber, diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 red onion, sliced
1 avocado, sliced
⅓ cup pitted Kalamata olives (or black olives), sliced
Lemon wedges, to serve
Instructions:
Whisk together all of the marinade/dressing ingredients in a medium bowl. Pour out half of the marinade into a jar with lid and refrigerate to use as the dressing later.
Add the chicken to the marinade in the bowl; marinade chicken for 15-30 minutes. While waiting for the chicken, prepare all of the salad ingredients and mix on a large plate/platter.
Once chicken is ready, heat 1 Tbsp of oil in a grill pan 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.
