Ingredients

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, Herbes de Provence, salt, and pepper. Coat chicken breasts with half the mixture; reserve the rest for dressing.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken breasts 2 minutes per side, then transfer to a baking sheet and roast for 12–15 minutes until cooked through. Let rest, then slice.
While chicken cooks, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch green beans for 2–3 minutes until crisp-tender; drain and rinse in cold water.
Place eggs in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 7 minutes for jammy yolks. Cool in ice water, then peel and halve.
In a small bowl, whisk reserved yogurt mixture with red wine vinegar and honey to make the dressing.
Divide salad greens between two bowls. Top with green beans, cherry tomatoes, cooked lentils, olives, and sliced chicken. Add egg halves.
Drizzle with the Dijon yogurt dressing. Serve immediately and celebrate!
