Preparation
1
Pat the chicken breast dry. Season generously with salt and black pepper.
2
Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken breast for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and no longer pink inside. Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice it into strips or cubes.
3
While the chicken cooks, prepare the salad ingredients. If using dry lentils, cook them according to package instructions (usually boil for 20-25 minutes until tender). Drain well. If using pre-cooked lentils, simply rinse.
4
Wash and spin dry the mixed salad greens. Slice the peach into wedges or cubes. Thinly slice the red onion.
5
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard. Season the dressing with a pinch of salt and pepper.
6
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, cooked lentils, sliced peach, and red onion. Add the grilled chicken slices.
7
Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately.
