4 servings
For the chicken
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 6 oz each)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp dried oregano
Ingredient noteHerbs and spices can carry nickel, so a low nickel diet limits them, but the small amount of oregano used to season this recipe is likely fine. If you prefer to always avoid oregano, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- salt and pepper, to taste
For the salad
- 4 large eggs
- 2 romaine lettuce hearts, chopped (about 8 cups)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

- ¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced
For the dressing
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add the chicken and cook undisturbed for 6–7 minutes, until the underside is deep golden and releases easily from the pan. Flip and cook for another 5–7 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F (74°C).
