Cooking Instructions

Instructions

For the Chicken Spinach Salad:

  • Bake the Chicken: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Rub the chicken with 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic powder, basil, salt, and pepper. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until fully cooked. Let cool, then shred the chicken.
  • Assemble the Salad: In a large bowl, combine arugula, chickpeas, cucumber, and sun-dried tomatoes.
  • Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  • Serve: Toss the salad with the dressing, then top with shredded chicken and feta cheese.

For the Tomato Basil Chicken:

  • Prepare the Chicken: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place chicken breasts in a baking dish. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and season with basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Top with cherry tomatoes.
  • Prepare the White Beans: In a separate bowl, mix the white beans with 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread them around the chicken in the dish.
  • Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Prepare the Zucchini: While the chicken is baking, lightly sauté the zucchini in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes until just tender.
  • Serve: Plate the chicken with the garlic white beans and sautéed zucchini. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese before serving.
