Weeknight Dinner, Simplified

Some nights call for something fresh, flavorful, and uncomplicated. This Mediterranean-inspired dinner brings together bright lemon chicken, classic caprese salad, and simple sides— all prepped seamlessly with our 3-Piece Bamboo Cutting Board Set with Juice Grooves. When each ingredient has its place, cooking feels smoother, cleaner, and more enjoyable.

A Smarter Way to Prep

When you're slicing chicken, chopping herbs, and layering tomatoes at the same time, organization makes all the difference.

Using separate cutting boards for protein and produce helps:

• Prevent cross-contamination
• Keep flavors clean and distinct
• Reduce countertop clutter
• Streamline your workflow

Our 3-piece set includes:

• Small Board - Ideal for herbs, citrus, and garnishes
• Medium Board - Perfect for fruits and vegetables, with a juice groove
• Large Board - Designed for meats, poultry, fish, and bread, featuring a deep juice groove and collection well

Crafted from sustainable Moso bamboo, each board is lightweight, durable, and knife-friendly. Flip them over for a flat surface when needed and enjoy easy transport to the table with inset handles on the medium and large boards.

Mediterranean Lemon Chicken with Caprese Salad

A bright, balanced dinner that feels special, yet fits beautifully into a busy weeknight.

Ingredients

• Lemon Oregano Chicken
  • 2-3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper
• Caprese Salad
  • 3-5 ripe tomatoes
  • 8 oz fresh mozzarella
  • Fresh basil
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Balsamic glaze
  • Salt and pepper

This classic charcuterie setup balances savory, crunchy, and fresh elements— familiar enough for everyone, but elevated enough to feel special.

Step 1: Prep the Citrus & Herbs

Small Cutting Board

1. Slice the lemon in half and juice one half into a small bowl (reserve the other half for serving).

2. Stack fresh basil leaves, roll them tightly, and thinly slice into ribbons (chiffonade).

3. Set basil aside for layering and garnish.

Step 2: Build the Caprese

Medium Cutting Board with Juice Groove

1. Slice tomatoes into ¼-inch rounds.

2. Slice fresh mozzarella into a similar thickness for even layering.

3. On a serving platter, begin layering by slightly overlapping a slice of tomato with mozzarella slices.

4. Continue interlayering tomatoes and mozzarella in a row or circular pattern until the platter is filled.

5. Scatter freshly sliced basil over the top.

6. Drizzle generously with olive oil.

7. Add a light drizzle of balsamic glaze.

8. Finish with flaky sea salt.

9. Set aside while you prepare the chicken.

Step 3: Marinate, Cook & Slice

Large Cutting Board with Juice Groove & Collection Well

1. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper.

2. Add chicken breasts and coat evenly in the marinade.

3. Let marinate for 15–20 minutes (or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor).

4. Cook using your preferred method: Grill over medium heat for 6–7 minutes per side, pan-sear over medium heat for 5–7 minutes per side, or bake at 400°F for 20–25 minutes. Cook until internal temperature reaches 165°F.

5. Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes.

6. Transfer to the large bamboo cutting board and slice against the grain into strips.

Simple Add-Ons to Complete the Meal

To round out your Mediterranean dinner, serve alongside:

• Grilled Ciabatta or Rosemary Focaccia
  
• Lemon-herb quinoa for a hearty grain option
  
• Roasted zucchini or eggplant for added depth
• Hummus or tzatziki for extra Mediterranean flavor
  

These additions add balance and texture while keeping the meal light and fresh.
