Salt
1/2 pound of arugula

Steps:

Whisk together lemon juice, shallot, olive oil, and black pepper in a large baking dish. Add chicken, turn to coat and marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes. Preheat grill to high. Remove chicken from marinade, season with salt on both sides and grill for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and cooked through.

Place each Paillard on a large plate, drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and top with some of the arugula-tomato salad.
