Chicken, strawberries, lettuce, basil, and balsamic - this is the irresistible combination of ingredients combined in this simple, tasty and at the same time diet-friendly recipe for fit grilled chicken breasts with basil and strawberries.

Fit grilled chicken breasts with basil and strawberries is a low-carb meal rich in protein, which is also relatively low in fat and calories. One serving of this meal contains less than 300 kcal, 7 g of carbohydrates and on the other hand, has up to 40 grams of protein. I recommend serving it on its own, but if you want, you can add another salad, quinoa, rice, or baked potatoes.

This light meal is great especially in the summer when we naturally reduce the amount of food in our diet and we also prefer to choose lighter meals. Alternatively, you can also enjoy it for dinner - it's not heavy on stomach, but is filling enough at the same time.

You can grill the chicken on a grill pan, or on the outdoor or electric grill. However, do not grill it for too long to prevent it from drying out.
