Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 1/2 lbs Chicken breast (boneless, skinless) Cut into pieces
  • Sea salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups Orange juice
  • 1/4 cup Soy sauce or Tamari (low sodium)
  • 3 tbsp Raw honey
  • 1 Lemon (mediume, juiced)
  • 12 Romaine leaves (washed, chopped)
  • 1/4 cup Everything Bagel seasoning

Method
 

  1. Heat half of the oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add it to the pan and cook for five minutes until golden brown, stirring occasionally.
  2. Meanwhile, in a bowl, whisk together the orange juice, soy sauce, honey, salt, and pepper. Add the mixture to the pan and cover with a lid. Cook on medium-low heat for 12 to 15 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through. Stir halfway through.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Add the romaine and toss well.
  4. Transfer the salad to a plate. Add the chicken on top of the salad. Sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning and enjoy!

Notes

Follow this quick and easy recipe to make a fast weeknight dinner or lunch for the next day.  Flavors of citrus, soy sauce, and honey combine well to delight your palate!
Store ingredients separately in airtight containers.  Don’t add the dressing to the romaine lettuce if you are planning on having the leftovers on another day.
Undoubtedly, this recipe will become one of your favorites because of its adaptability.  Instead of chicken, try it with shrimp, lean pork, or go meatless by adding edamame or tofu.  Another way to increase the nutritional value is to add seeds like sunflower, pumpkin, or additional sesame seeds.  Include additional vegetables like baby spinach, kale, cucumbers, green onions, broccoli florets, carrots, and more!
