Parmesan-Crusted Chicken and Arugula Salad
Parmesan-Crusted Chicken and Arugula Salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. This dish is a combination of crispy and juicy chicken with a fresh and flavorful arugula salad. The Parmesan crust adds a savory and cheesy flavor to the chicken, while the arugula salad provides a refreshing and tangy taste.
To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cups arugula
- 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
To start, preheat your oven to 400°F. In a shallow dish, mix together the Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breast in the mixture, pressing the mixture onto the chicken to ensure it sticks.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the arugula salad. In a large bowl, combine the arugula, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and feta cheese. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to combine.
Once the chicken is done, slice it into strips and serve on top of the arugula salad. This dish is perfect for a light lunch or dinner and is sure to impress your guests with its delicious flavors and beautiful presentation.
