Pan Cooked Citrus Chicken over Salad with Citrus Vinaigrette

I needed an easy lunch to make and decided to create a light and simple chicken salad dish.  I had a couple of chicken tenders, oj, salad greens (local lettuces from a farm share), baby portabello mushrooms red wine vinegar and some spices, so here is what I came up with:

Ingredients:

For Chicken:
chicken
Orange Jucie
pinch of Indian Chili Powder
Canola Oil

For Salad Dressing:
Orange Juice
Red Wine Vinegar
Cilantro
Salt
Pepper
Garlic Powder

My chicken tenders were already in a zip lock bag, so I poured a small amount of oj and a pinch of Indian Red Chili powder into the bag, closed it, shook it up a bit and let it sit for about 5 mins while I worked on the rest of the salad

I had a variety of salad greens, so I cleaned those, placed some mushrooms on top and set the salad base aside.  I then poured probably under 1/8 cup of orange juice into a bowel.  Next I added a dash of salt, pepper, cilantro and garlic powder.  Finally, I added probably 1/2 tbs of red wine vinegar, stirred and set aside. 

I then heated up some canola oil in a pan, added the marinated chicken and cooked the chicken through.  Once cooked, I sliced the chicken, placed it on the salad greens and topped all with my dressing.  Was delicious.
