Bonus: Cook Once, Eat Twice. This makes extra chicken, so you've got a start on tomorrow's pasta toss. If you're not planning on the Day-Two menu, cook only four breasts.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 head romaine lettuce
- 1 carrot, shredded
- 1/2 sweet red pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/3 cup light mayonnaise
- 3 tbsp milk
- 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/2 cup croutons
Preparation
Combine oil, oregano, pepper and salt ; brush over chicken. Place on greased grill over medium heat; close lid and cook, turning once, for 10 minutes or until no longer pink inside.
Transfer to cutting board; tent with foil and let stand for 5 minutes. Cover and refrigerate 2 of the breasts for Creamy Cheddar Pasta Toss. Slice remaining chicken across the grain into thin strips.
Meanwhile, tear lettuce into bite-size pieces; place in large bowl. Add carrot, red pepper and chicken; toss lightly.
Whisk together mayonnaise, milk, cheese, lemon juice, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper; pour over salad and toss to coat. Sprinkle with croutons.
