Ingredients

1 bunch of cilantro

1 bunch of basil

120 g tahini

30 ml extra virgin olive oil

1 large lemon

120 ml water

1 Tbsp sumac

500 g boneless chicken breast

2 romaine hearts

2 medium zucchinis

40 g fried onions

Salt to taste

Method

Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.

Season the chicken breasts with salt and sumac.

Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked. Let it rest for 10 minutes, then cut into strips.

Wash the romaine hearts and chop them into bite-sized pieces.

Slice the zucchinis thinly, preferably with a mandoline slicer.

In a blender, combine the cilantro, basil, tahini, juice of the lemon, extra virgin olive oil, water, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth to create the dressing.

In a large bowl, toss the romaine lettuce and zucchini with half of the dressing.

Add the grilled chicken to the salad and drizzle with the remaining dressing.

Garnish the salad with fried onions before serving.
