4 x skinless, boneless chicken breasts
2 tbsp roasted red pepper pesto

1 bunch of salad (spring) onions
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 x lemon (zest and juice only)
1 tsp ground cumin

Here is how you make Griddled chicken with lemon lentil and green bean salad:

Gently flatten the chicken breasts then spread both sides with the pesto. Cook on a hot griddle pan (a frying pan will suffice, or the barbecue in summer!) for around 8 minutes, turning once until well browned and cooked through.While the chicken is cooking, place the beans in a pan and cover with boiling water. Boil for 5 minutes and drain. (At this point, if you want a cold salad to accompany your chicken, refresh the beans under cold water. If not, speed on with the next section so they don't lose their heat).Pat the beans dry and place in a bowl with the lentils (drained) and sliced spring onions. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice and zest and cumin. Pour over the beans and mix to cook.Serve and enjoy!Serving Size: Serves 4 adultsNumber of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user LEFFIEGRL.
