2.    Add the chicken to the marinade in the bowl; marinade for 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the fridge, cover the dish with cling film.

4.    Once the chicken is ready, place the chicken under a medium/high grill.  Grill both sides until browned and completely cooked through.

5.    Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes; slice and arrange over the salad. Drizzle the dressing you kept aside over the salad and serve with lemon wedges, enjoy!
