Instructions
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce.
Zest, then juice lemon. Roughly chop parsley and cilantro. Cut tomatoes into 1/2-inch pieces. Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces. Peel, then cut half the onion into 1/4-inch pieces (whole onion for 4 ppl).
Combine parsley, cilantro, onions, half the lemon zest and half the juice, half the Smoked Paprika-Garlic Blend, and 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with remaining Smoked Paprika-Garlic Blend, salt and pepper. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then chicken. Sear, until golden-brown, 1-2 min per side. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Top each breast with chimichurri. Bake in the middle of the oven, until cooked through, 10-12 min.**
While chicken bakes, whisk together remaining lemon zest and juice, 1/2 tbsp sugar and 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl both for 4 ppl), in the large bowl (from step 2). Add kale and massage. Add tomatoes and peppers, then toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
Thinly slice chicken. Divide salad between plates. Top with sliced chicken. Sprinkle feta over top.
