Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup shelled pistachio nut, finely ground
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 pinch fresh ground black pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup diced sweet white onion
1 head romaine lettuce
1 tsp grated sweet white onion
1 large ripe avocado, pitted and peeled
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
3 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tbsp water

Directions:

To make the salad: Preheat the oven to 375°F Mix the nuts in a pie plate with 1⁄2 teaspoon salt and 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper. Press the chicken into the nuts. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet and cook the coated breasts, 2 minutes per side. Place the breasts in a baking dish and bake for 15 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in the thickest portion registers 160°F and the juices run clear.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the diced onion, 1⁄4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper. Cook until the onion is browned.
Line 4 serving plates with lettuce. Slice the chicken breasts and arrange 1 breast on top of the lettuce on each plate. Serve with the dressing.
To make the dressing: Puree the onion, avocado, oil, lime juice, and water in a blender.
