👩🍳 Instructions
- 1 Marinate the chicken breast with 1/2 tsp salt, pepper, paprika powder, and half of the minced garlic for 15 minutes at room temperature.
- 2 Heat a non-stick pan or grill pan with a light coating of olive oil over medium heat, grill the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until evenly cooked and browned on the surface, remove and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- 3 Make the yogurt sauce by mixing the plain yogurt, lemon juice, the remaining minced garlic, honey, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl, stirring until the texture is creamy and smooth.
- 4 Arrange the romaine lettuce as a base on a serving plate, then add the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, sliced shallot, and diced avocado on top.
- 5 Place the warm sliced grilled chicken on top of the arranged vegetables.
- 6 Drizzle the salad evenly with the lemon yogurt sauce, then add a light drizzle of olive oil on top as a finishing touch.
- 7 Serve immediately while the chicken is still warm so the vegetables stay crisp and fresh.
💡 Tips
• Use plain Greek yogurt if you want a thicker sauce texture and higher protein content.
• Don't marinate the chicken with salt for too long, as it can make the meat tough when grilled.
• Avocado should be added last so it doesn't get mushy and keeps its fresh color.
• You can substitute turkey breast or grilled tofu for a protein variation.
