Step 1
Season the 2 chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken until golden and cooked through, about 6 minutes per side. Let rest, then slice.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, and 1 tbsp lemon juice until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 3
In a large bowl, toss the 4 cups lettuce with the dressing until evenly coated.
Step 4
Top the dressed lettuce with the sliced chicken and sprinkle with 1 tbsp sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
