Ingredients

1 kg chicken breasts, boneless skinless

1 large bunch basil

3 cloves garlic

2 lemons

2 peaches

2 yellow bell peppers

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon soy sauce

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1/2 teaspoon salt

Method

Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.

Wash and dry the basil. Shave the leaves off the stems; discard the stems and chop the leaves. Place half in a medium bowl and half in a large bowl.

Grate zest from the lemons. Add the lemon zest and juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the medium bowl with the basil; mix together.

Cut the chicken in half horizontally to form thin fillets. Place in the lemon-basil mixture and turn to coat. Set aside for 10 minutes to marinate.

Wash and cut the peaches and yellow bell peppers into thin sticks; add to the large bowl with the basil.

Peel and mince the garlic. In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the minced garlic, lemon juice, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, honey, and crushed red pepper.

Coat the grill/skillet with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

Pour the dressing over the peach and pepper salad and toss to combine.

Serve the lemon-basil grilled chicken with the peach and pepper salad on the side.
