- 1½teaspoons freshly ground pepper
- 6breasts of chicken (3 whole breasts, split), cleaned (about 6 ounces each)
- 2teaspoons herbes de Provence
- 3 to 4cloves garlic, peeled, crushed and finely chopped (2 teaspoons)
- 2tablespoons corn or safflower oil
- 1tablespoon white-wine vinegar
- 2teaspoons Dijon mustard
- ½teaspoon salt
- ½teaspoon freshly ground pepper
- 1head red-leaf lettuce, leaves cut into 2-inch pieces, washed and thoroughly dried (about 12 cups lightly packed)
The Dressing
Preparation
- Step 1
Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet. Add the mushroom pieces and saute for about 1 minute. Add the corn and saute for another 2 minutes. Stir in ½ teaspoon each of the salt and pepper and set aside.
- Step 2
Rub the chicken on both sides with the herbes de Provence and the remaining teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Sprinkle the remaining tablespoon of oil on top.
- Step 3
Heat 1 large or 2 smaller heavy cast iron or thick aluminum skillets. When very hot, add the chicken and saute over high heat for about 2 to 2½ minutes on each side. Remove from heat and set aside in the pan, covered, for 5 minutes. (This step is important to assure that the chicken will be tender; it will continue to cook in its own juices while you make the salad.)
- Step 4
Place the dressing ingredients in a salad bowl and mix thoroughly. When ready to serve, add the lettuce and toss well. Divide among six plates and sprinkle the mushrooms and corn on top. Slice the chicken breasts and arrange them (along with any juices) around or on top of the salad. Serve immediately.

Cooking Notes
2 Tbsp oil and 1 Tbsp of vinegar for dressing seems wrong for this much food. Especially with 3-4 cloves garlic. Seems way off. Please check.
