Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 teaspoons dried tarragon 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest 1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper 4 bone-in chicken breast halves 1/3 cup low-fat plain yogurt 2 teaspoons plus 1 tablespoon olive oil 3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice 3 plum tomatoes, coarsely chopped 4 scallions, thinly sliced 6 ounces mesclun (about 6 cups)

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Rub tarragon, 1 teaspoon lemon zest, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper under chicken skin. Place on a rimmed baking sheet; roast until cooked through, about 30 minutes.

Remove and discard skin and bones from chicken; thinly slice meat lengthwise. Add to bowl along with tomatoes and scallions; toss to combine.

In a separate bowl, whisk together remaining 2 teaspoons lemon juice and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add mesclun; toss to coat. Divide among plates; spoon chicken mixture on top.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       09/03/2013   Made this today for this week's brown bag lunches. Didn't want to turn on the oven so I put the chicken in the slow cooker with all the same ingrdients as above with the addition of some chicken stock. Used greek yogurt instead of regular. A little seasoned salt and pepper. Deeeelish! Great light summer lunch.

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       08/06/2008   Is there any way I can incorporate this receipe to use as chicken salad sandwiches.  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/25/2008   Just should read juice, sorry!  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       04/25/2008   This salad is fantastic and garners lots of praise. I make it without chicken and us split sweet grape tomatoes. I find Earthbound (organic mixed baby greens) has the best combination of mild and tart flavors. Don't take shortcuts, use fresh lemon just and fresh zest. Don't overdo on the lemon just it loses its subtlety. Top with coarse pepper and coarse salt. This is a great companion for grilled meats and fish.
