Grilled Chicken, Mushroom, and Fig Salad

Ingredients

• ¼ c. fresh lemon juice
• ¼ c. olive oil
• 1 tbsp. Chopped fresh oregano
• 1 clove garlic
• ½ tsp. salt
• ¼ tsp. fresh-ground pepper
• ¾ lb. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 c. mixed mushrooms
• 4 fresh figs
• 4 slice prosciutto

Directions

1. Marinate the ingredients: Place the lemon juice, oil, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish, add the chicken, mushrooms, figs, and prosciutto, and let sit for 20 minutes.
2. Grill ingredients: Heat a grill until very hot. Grill chicken until cooked through -- about 5 minutes on each side. Remove chicken from grill, slice into 1-inch-thick pieces, and set aside. Grill the mushrooms, turning occasionally, until browned and softened -- about 6 minutes. Remove mushrooms from grill, halve or quarter each, and set aside. Grill the figs for 1 minute on each side and set aside. Place prosciutto on the grill, cook for 30 seconds per side, and slice into 1-inch pieces.
3. Divide grilled ingredients among 4 plates and serve immediately.
