Cooking Steps

Cook chicken
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. 
  • Wash and dry all produce. 
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • While the pan heats, pat chicken dry with paper towels, then season with half the Lemon-Pepper Seasoning and salt.
  • When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Pan-fry for 1-2 min per side, until golden.
  • Remove from heat, then transfer chicken to an unlined baking sheet.
  • Roast in the middle of the oven for 10-12 min, until cooked through.**
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, zest, then juice half the lemon (whole lemon for 4 servings). Cut any remaining lemon into wedges.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Make croutons
3
  • Cut or tear ciabatta into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • To a large bowl, add ciabatta pieces and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Reheat the same pan (from step 1) over medium.
  • When hot, add ciabatta pieces. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, browned on all sides.
  • Return croutons to the same large bowl to cool slightly, 5 min.
Make dressing
4
  • In a small bowl, combine mayo, lemon zest, lemon juice, half the Parmesan, remaining Lemon-Pepper Seasoning and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) garlic. (Like things spicy? Add more garlic!)
Make salad
5
  • To the large bowl with croutons, add spinach and half the dressing. Toss to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Thinly slice chicken.
  • Divide salad between plates. Top with chicken.
  • Drizzle remaining dressing over top, then sprinkle with remaining Parmesan.
  • Squeeze a lemon wedge over top, if you like.
