Description

Healthy Lemon Chicken Salad is a simple, delicious, low fat meal idea. Ready in just 20 minutes and packed with lean protein, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, this is a great dinner for a busy weeknight!

Ingredients

  • ⅓ cups Olive Oil
  • ½ cups Lemon Juice
  • 2 Tablespoons Dried Rosemary
  • 2 Tablespoons Dried Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 3 whole Boneless Chicken Breasts
  • 5 cups Lettuce
  • 8 whole Multi Colored Sweet Peppers
  • 1 cup Dried Cranberries
  • 1 can (6 Oz. Size) Large Black Olives, Drained
  • 1 can (15 1/4 Oz. Size) Black Beans, Rinsed And Drained

Preparation

Heat oven to broil.

In a large bowl, whisk olive oil, lemon juice and spices. Add chicken breasts and turn to coat. Let stand 10 minutes.

Place chicken on broiler pan and broil 5 to 6 minutes per side, basting with extra marinade, until lightly browned and meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast registers 180ºF. Remove from oven and set aside.

Rinse lettuce and tear into bite sized pieces. My go-to lettuce is typically endive or leaf lettuce, but you can use any. Drain and place in large bowl.

Rinse and clean peppers. Cut into thin slices and add to bowl. Add dried cranberries, olives, and beans.

Cut chicken into 1-inch  cubes and add to bowl. Toss and serve with dressing of your choice.
