Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
4 small, thin chicken breasts
extra-virgin olive oil, to taste, for drizzling, plus 2 tablespoons
2 tablespoons fresh thyme, finely chopped
2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley, fresh chopped
1 lemon, zested and juiced
coarse salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken stock
5-oz. package mixed baby salad greens

Directions:
Directions:
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

Arrange the chicken breasts in a shallow baking dish. Drizzle with the olive oil, making sure each chicken breast is coated.

Combine the thyme, parsley, and lemon zest. Sprinkle the herb mixture over the top of the chicken breasts.

Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Rub and toss the chicken in the oil and seasoning so that every piece is evenly coated.

Transfer the chicken to the heated skillet in a single layer. Cook the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes on each side. Transfer the chicken to a plate.

Add the butter to the hot skillet. Once the butter melts, add the flour to the skillet and whisk together until a light roux forms, about 1-2 minutes. Slowly add in the chicken stock, whisking as you pour it into the skillet. Once the mixture is thick enough to easily coat the back of a spoon, remove the skillet from the heat.

Toss the salad greens with lemon juice and coarse salt. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of the olive oil into the salad, tossing to combine.

Coat the bottom of a dinner plate with the sauce. Top with the salad and the chicken.
