Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken breast until fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes per side. Once done, let it rest before slicing.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chicken is cooking, wash and chop the mixed greens, squash blossoms, purslane, tomato, cucumber, and tomatillo. Slice the onion thinly.

  3. 3

    Make the Lemon Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together the juice of 1 lemon, salt, and pepper to taste. Optionally, add olive oil for a richer dressing.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, squash blossoms, purslane, tomato, cucumber, tomatillo, and onion. Add the sliced chicken on top.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Drizzle the lemon dressing over the salad, toss gently, and serve immediately.
