Soy-Ginger Chicken With Greens

1. Make the Marinade and Dressing

Whisk together soy sauce, sugar, lime juice, seasoned rice vinegar, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Add minced garlic, minced ginger, grapeseed oil, and dark sesame oil, and incorporate well. For added heat, include minced serrano or Thai green chiles or cayenne to taste. Use some of the mixture to marinate the chicken breasts and reserve the rest for dressing the greens.

2. Prepare the Chicken

Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness of about a quarter inch between sheets of plastic wrap. This ensures even cooking and tender meat.

3. Cook the Chicken

Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper, then lightly dredge in all-purpose flour. In a heated skillet with oil, cook the chicken for approximately 1.5 minutes on each side until browned and aromatic. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro before transferring to a platter to keep warm in the oven.

4. Dress the Greens

Toss the wild arugula or salad mix with the remaining dressing until the greens are slightly wilted and flavored.

5. Serve

Slice the chicken and arrange it over the dressed greens before serving.
