Chicken breast with salad is the dish everyone knows and most people overcook. The answer is a griddle pan, high heat and two minutes of rest.

Ingredients

Forserving
  • 180 gChicken breast
  • 100 gSalad leaves
  • 150 gTomatoes
  • 100 gCucumber
  • 10 gOlive oil (1 tbsp)
  • Salt, pepper, paprika, lemon

How to make it

  1. Flatten the chicken breast or halve it horizontally, then rub it with salt, pepper and paprika.
  2. Griddle or pan very hot, with half the oil. Fry the meat for four minutes a side without moving it.
  3. Rest for two minutes, then slice.
  4. Dress the leaves, tomatoes and cucumber with the rest of the oil, lemon and salt, chicken on top.

One tip

The meat lies still in the pan. Move it and you get no crust, and the crust is the flavour.
