Walnut Chicken Salad

Ingredients:
4 skinned and boned chicken breast halves
3 Tbsps buttermilk
1 cup finely ground walnuts
1/2 cup fine, dry breadcrumbs
1 tsp salt
2 Tbsps vegetable oil
1 package mixed salad greens
2 - 3 carrots, chopped
1 cup (4 oz) shredded colby-Monterey Jack cheese blend
16 cherry tomatoes, cut in half *
Salad dressing of choice (I used Italian)

Place chicken between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; flatten to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin
Brush buttermilk evenly over chicken
Combine walnuts, breadcrumbs, & salt in a shallow dish; dredge chicken in mixture
Pour oil into a large skillet; place over medium-high heat until hot
Add chicken & cook 3 minutes on each side or until golden
Remove from heat; cool slightly
Cut chicken crosswise into thin slices
Combine salad greens, tomatoes, & carrots and arrange on each of 4 individual plates
Sprinkle with cheese, top with chicken, & add salad dressing

* I used on the vine tomatoes because the store was out of cherry tomatoes
