SIMPLE SUMMER CHICKEN
This is best made with organic chicken....the only chicken I serve to my family. The ones I buy are usually on the small side and cook more quickly than those plump monsters that are bought sealed in plastic. This is my classic kind of recipe - simple and tasty....the chicken is marinated AFTER cooking, rather than before. This is good served with steamed new potatoes, cole slaw and ice cold beer.

Steps:
- Slice the chicken breasts lengthwise so they are about a half-inch thick.
- Heat a frying pan on a medium-high heat with a bit of olive oil in it.
- Once the oil is hot, lay the slices of chicken in the pan and sauté for about four minutes, until it is brown on one side. While the meat is cooking, squeeze lemon juice on top of it. Season to taste.
- Flip the breasts once they are brown, and cook through on the other side. Squeeze more lemon juice on the meat as it cooks.
- Once the meat is cooked, transfer it to a cutting board and slice crosswise, into strips. Let cool a bit.
- Dress the salad, and distribute it into four bowls.
- Divide the slices of chicken breast among the bowls, and place the strips atop the greens. Enjoy!
