Main Ingredients- 1 Chicken breast
- 1 Tbsp Olive oil
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the key component of our delicious salad: the balsamic dressing. Finely mince 1/4 onion and combine it with 5 Tbsp balsamic vinegar, 1 Tbsp olive oil, and 1 Tbsp sweet plum syrup. Add a pinch of salt and pepper for extra flavor. Whisk everything together until the dressing is well combined.
Step 2
Prepare the fresh vegetables. Wash 2 cherry tomatoes, 10 leaves of crisp lettuce, and 5 leaves of tender romaine lettuce thoroughly.
Step 3
Chop the prepared vegetables into thick shreds. This will give your salad a pleasant texture. Avoid chopping them too finely, as they might become soggy.
Step 4
Remove the stems from the cherry tomatoes and cut them in half. For a prettier presentation, you can also slice them thinly into half-moon shapes.
Step 5
Now, arrange all the prepared vegetables beautifully in a large salad bowl. A colorful arrangement will make your salad look even more appetizing.
Step 6
Next, we’ll prepare the chicken breast. Take 1 chicken breast and slice it as thinly as possible to avoid a dry texture. Thinly sliced chicken cooks through evenly and develops a lovely golden-brown sear, making it much more delicious.
Step 7
Now, let’s add flavor to the thinly sliced chicken breast. Drizzle with 1 Tbsp of olive oil, and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Gently toss to coat the chicken evenly, allowing the seasoning to penetrate.
Step 8
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat (no additional oil needed). Place the seasoned chicken breast slices in the hot pan. Cook, flipping them occasionally, until golden brown and nicely seared on both sides. Since they are thin, they will cook quickly.
Step 9
Remove the perfectly seared chicken breast from the pan and let it cool slightly. While it can be added warm, letting it cool a bit allows it to blend better with the other salad ingredients. Arrange the slightly cooled chicken breast slices attractively over the salad.
Step 10
Finally, drizzle the prepared balsamic dressing evenly over the salad. Your delicious diet chicken breast salad is now complete! Feel free to add nuts or avocado for extra texture and flavor. Enjoy your healthy and satisfying meal!
