Tips
This salad can be made with left overs like Lamb or with shrimp. My friends loved it with leg of lamb. I also like using grape tomatoes for a different look
Directions
In large skillet add olive oil and chicken breast cook on med. to med. high heat till done. In med. sauce pan add Orange juice and lemon juice and cook till reduced about 20 min on medium heat.
Meanwhile in large bowl shred lettuce, then dice tomato,peppers, and onion and toss into bowl and set aside.
Take cooled Chicken breast's and dice into bite sized pieces and add them to lettuce mix. Then check on orange juice mix and add your Thyme,rosemary,and basil, stir let cook for few more min to infuse the flavors of the spices. Then you want to remove from heat and let cool completely it should be the consistency of syrup. The goal of the Orange dressing is to remove the water from the juice. You will want to place the dressing into a glass container for pouring that you can seal, because there is normally some left over.
Place your salad mixture into a small bowl and lightly drizzle with your dressing
