Grilled Chicken Breast, Avocado & Tomato Salad

Recipe makes 3 servings

Ingredients:

2 medium chicken breasts (about 14 ounces/400g)
2 Tbsp olive oil (plus more for grilling)
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried thyme
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 ripe avocado, diced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 medium cucumber, diced

For the Dressing:
2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp maple-flavored syrup (sugar free)
1 Tbsp lemon juice
Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp olive oil, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture over the chicken breasts and let marinate for at least 20 minutes.

Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Brush lightly with olive oil. Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into bite-sized pieces.

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, Dijon mustard, maple-flavored syrup, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth.

In a large bowl, combine avocado, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and grilled chicken pieces.

Drizzle the dressing over the salad, toss gently, and serve immediately.
