Ingredients:
3/4 cup cornflakes |
2 tablespoons pistachios, toasted |
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind |
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, divided |
4 (4-ounce) skinned, boned chicken breast halves |
1 tablespoon honey |
cooking spray |
6 cups gourmet salad greens |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
lemon wedges (optional) |
Directions:
1. Combine cornflakes, pistachios, rind, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a food processor; pulse until coarsely ground. Place crumb mixture in a shallow dish.
2. Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap. Flatten to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Brush the chicken with honey. Dredge the chicken in crumb mixture.
3. Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Add chicken, and sauté 5 minutes on each side or until done. Cut chicken into 1/2-inch strips; set aside.
4. Place salad greens in a large bowl. Combine 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, juice, and oil, and drizzle over salad greens, tossing gently to coat.
5. Divide the salad greens and chicken evenly among 4 plates. Garnish with lemon wedges, if desired.
