Instructions

  • In a medium bowl or a large measuring cup, whisk together all of the marinade/dressing ingredients. Pour half 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 baking dish. Marinate chicken for 15-30 minutes (or up to two hours in the refrigerator, if time allows).
  • Meanwhile, prepare all of the salad ingredients and mix together in a large salad bowl.
  • Once chicken is ready to cook, heat oil in a grill pan or grill plate, over medium-high heat. Grill chicken on both sides until browned and completely cooked through, about 5 minutes per side or until an instant read thermometer registers 165 degrees F.
  • Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes; slice and arrange over salad. Drizzle salad with the remaining dressing. Serve with lemon wedges.
