  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 (6 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1 cup arugula
  • 1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and diced
  • 12 oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained and sliced
