Herbed Chicken with spinach-micro celery salad

This is a very light and healthy dish that pairs nicely with red wine and beautiful sunset. You can bake or grill the chicken in home or do it my way - BBQ the marinated chicken while enjoying a quite evening in the spa ;)






Ingredients:
Chicken breast
Olive oil
Salt
Pepper
Garlic clove
Some rosemary
Some thyme
Some marjoram
Some Lemon juice

Chopped spinach
Micro celery
Diagonally sliced beans
Diagonally sliced spring onion
Capers
Some finely chopped red chillies


Method:
1. Marinate the chicken breast with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, lemon juice and chopped fresh herbs(rosemary, thyme and marjoram) and set aside for 30 minutes.

2. Then cook the chicken on low heat in a pan or BBQ grill. Alternately you can cook chicken in oven at 370F for 40 minutes/until done.

2. To make the dressing - mix olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, red chillies and drained capers.

3. In a bowl, add spinach, micro celery, diagonally chopped beans and spring onions and lightly coat with the dressing.

Squeeze some lemon juice on chicken and serve hot with the salad!
