Ingredients

7 teaspoons lime juice, divided
3 teaspoons minced fresh thyme, divided
1/2 teaspoon plus 4-1/2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (5 ounces each)
1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon pepper, divided

3 cups spring mix salad greens
1 medium nectarine, thinly sliced
1/2 cup fresh raspberries

Directions

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine 1-1/2 teaspoons lime juice, 1-1/2 teaspoons thyme and 1/2 teaspoon oil; add the chicken. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Sprinkle chicken with 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook on an indoor grill or panini maker for 4-6 minutes or until juices run clear. Remove and keep warm.
In a small bowl, whisk the garlic and remaining lime juice, thyme, oil, salt and pepper. In another bowl, toss salad greens and nectarine. Drizzle with dressing; toss to coat.
Divide salad mixture between two serving plates. Slice chicken; arrange over salad. Sprinkle with raspberries, blackberries, pine nuts and, if desired, cheese.
