Easy, summery salad; great for all those low-carb eaters. I make this lemon-pepper chicken salad for my husband when he is on his Atkins® diet.

Ingredients

  • 2 lemons
  • 2 limes
  • 6 skinless , boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon lemon-pepper seasoning , divided
  • 0.5 heads iceberg lettuce , chopped
  • 4 carrots , chopped
  • 2 tomatoes , chopped
  • 2 cucumbers , chopped
  • 0.25 cups sliced green onions , Optional

Instructions

  1. 1

    Roll lemons and limes on a cutting board to release the juices; cut in half and squeeze 1/2 of the juice onto chicken breasts. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the lemon-pepper seasoning, and let marinate for about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  3. 3

    Toss lettuce, carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, and green onions together in a large salad bowl.

  4. 4

    Turn marinated chicken over and sprinkle other side with remaining lemon-pepper seasoning.

  5. 5

    Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Cut chicken into long strips and place on salad. Squeeze remaining lemon and lime juice on salad at the last minute before serving.
