Grilled chicken with peach salad
Delight your taste buds with a vibrant grilled chicken salad featuring juicy peaches, fresh greens, and a zesty vinaigrette. Perfect for a summer meal!
Ingredients:
- Four 6- to 8-ounce boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Zest and juice of 1/2 lemon
- 2 ripe peaches, pitted and cut into wedges
- 2 large tomatoes, preferably heirloom, cored and cut into wedges
- 1/4 cup lightly packed basil leaves, torn
- 2 tablespoons roughly chopped chives
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for drizzling
Instructions:
- Get the grill ready for medium heat; lightly grease the grill grates using vegetable oil. Flatten the chicken breasts with a meat mallet between two pieces of plastic wrap until they are evenly about 1/2 inch thick. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon zest generously. Cook the chicken on the grill until it feels firm when touched, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
- In the meantime, mix the peaches, tomatoes, basil, chives, lemon juice, and olive oil in a medium bowl until thoroughly combined; season with salt and pepper.
- Place a chicken piece on each of the 4 plates, then distribute the salad with its juices among the plates. Lightly drizzle olive oil over the chicken and salad.
