Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe. A new recipe! For my first ZReduction meal, I wanted something with some crunch and some class. I came up with this Grilled French chicken salad.

Servings: Serves 2

Ingredients:

  • 8 chicken tenders
  • a sprinkling of Herbs de Provence seasoning
  • a grating of sea salt
  • a bit of onion powder
  • and a bit of cayenne (to taste)
  • 1 cup of lettuce mix (I just eye it by a small handful that I spread in a five inch circle – see picture)
  • 1 cup of chopped veggies including a few bits of peeled English cucumber, a few bits of chopped celery, a few cherry tomato halves, one green onion chopped and 3 blackberries (subtract the berries from your dessert fruit)
  • 1-2 Tbl of red wine dressing with bits of fresh tarragon (use the usual dressing recipe and just add tarragon)
  • fresh pepper grated on top

Instructions:

For the chicken tenders

Lightly spray (very lightly) your ridged grill pan. Add the chicken tenders. Then sprinkle on your herbs, spices and the salt. The cayenne is completely optional but I always want to give (even French food), a tiny zip.

Grill them on medium high until you get grill stripes on the one side. Turn over and finish grilling them until there is no pink left in the chicken.

While the chicken is grilling you can prep all of your veggies and assemble your salad. Then I just added the chicken tenders on the side so I could heat hot meat and cold salad.

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Roasted Prime Rib

When I was a kid this was served at very special meals. My mother made hers plain. I had no idea how incredibly fabulous this meat could taste until I started adding the meat rub!

Zola-fied Berghoff Spinach

The Berghoff is a famous Chicago restaurant. Their creamed spinach is an institution in itself. This is my ZReduction version.
