-
12 oz Chicken Breast Tenders, Skinless, Boneless
2 T Lite Creamy Caesar
1/2 c Romaine Salad Blend (Dole)
8 Black Olives, Halved
2 Pocket Thins, 8 Grain
2 c Portabella Mushrooms, Cubed
1/2 Avocado (49 grams)
2 Thin Slices Raw Onion, Quartered
1 T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 fl oz Lime Juice
4 T Flat Leaf Parsley, Fresh, Chopped
Tips
Marinate the chicken overnight for a quick meal the next day. Simply place the chicken in the oven at the same time you start the mushrooms.
Directions
Place the chicken tenders in a bowl, top with Lite Caesar Dressing. Use tongs to toss the chicken, coating it well. Cover and place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes up to 24 hours.
Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add Olive Oil and cubed portabella mushrooms. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 15 minutes. Remove and cover.
While mushrooms are cooking, scoop out 1 half of an avocado and slice thin, lengthwise. Place in a small custard cup or similar sized container and pour lime juice over. Cover and refrigerate.
After chicken has marinated, place on a baking sheet, 5-6" under broiler and cook for 15 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes. When done, plate and cover loosely with foil to rest for 10 minutes. Slice into 1/2" wide strips, no longer than 2" long.
Divide ingredients into 8ths, then assemble each pita half with 1/8th in the following order: Romaine, Onions, Olive Halves, Chicken Strips, mushrooms and avocado. Top each half with parsley. Serve.
