Ingredients:
Some butter

Note: If you don't have Herbes de Provence at home, use some dried rosemary, thyme and oregano mixture.
If you get a full size chicken breast, then slice it in half and then pound the halves in thin cutlets,

2. In a non-stick pan, heat some butter and put the chicken tender with the seasoned side down. Cook the chicken on medium heat for about 4-5minutes.

3. Season the other side of the chicken, turn and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked through,

4. Remove the chicken from the pan. Then add a little blue cheese, some Dijon mustard and some water to the pan. Let it bubble for a couple of minutes till the sauce starts to thicken.

5. In a plate, put salad as a base and top that with the seared chicken, Spoon over the sauce on the chicken. The sauce will also act as a warm salad dressing.
Serve and eat immediately!

For lunch option, you can store the dressing separately and warm it just a bit in microwave before assembling your gourmet salad.
