INGREDIENTS
- Chicken breast: you may use chicken thighs
- Avocado: Use firm but ripe avocados
- Eggs
- Any greens of your choice spinach or kale
- Greek yogurt: plain yogurt or sour cream works
- Olive Oil
- Lemon: use fresh lemons
- Parmesan Cheese
- Seasonings and condiments: Oregano, salt & pepper, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder
METHOD
- Marinate the chicken: Whisk olive oil, oregano, and salt into a small mixing bowl. Place the chicken breast into a ziplock bag, pour the prepared rub, and seal the bag. Gently press the marinade around the chicken to coat evenly. Refrigerate and let marinate for at least 1 hour (or overnight if time allows)
- Make the dressing: Mix all the dressing ingredients in a bowl, cover, and refrigerate until ready.
- Cook the chicken: Heat a large skillet or a grill over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated chicken for a cook for 8-10 minutes without moving. Avoid pressing and prodding. After 6-8 minutes flip the chicken and cook on the second side until golden brown, about 4-6 minutes more.
- Cook eggs: While the chicken is cooking, boil the eggs.
- Chop the lettuce into large pieces and slice the avocado into chunks. Once the chicken is done, remove it from the pan/grill and transfer it to a cutting board. Allow it to sit for a few minutes, then slice and set aside.
- Peel and slice the eggs into quarters and set aside.
- Assemble: For assembling, place the chopped greens and avocado in a large salad bowl. Add eggs and sliced chicken.
- Add dressing: Finally, drizzle the prepared dressing all over the chicken. Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper, if needed.
