Ingredients
Marinade/Dressing:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ¼ cup lemon juice fresh
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons parsley chopped, fresh
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried rosemary, dried
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper or to taste, cracked
- 1 pound chicken thigh fillet or chicken breasts, skinless boneless
Salad:
- 4 cups romaine lettuce washed and dried, leaves
- 1 avocado large, pitted, peeled and sliced
- 8 ounces feta cheese
- 1 cup grape tomatoes halved
- ¼ red onion sliced, optional
- ¼ cup Bacon trimmed of rind and fat, diced
- 4 lemon to serve, wedges
Instructions
- 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 skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Sear chicken on both sides until browned and completely cooked through (about 7 minutes per side, depending on thickness).
- Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes; slice and arrange over salad. Drizzle salad with the remaining UNTOUCHED dressing. Serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
- Tip: For a touch of extra freshness, try throwing in some chopped cucumber.
