Directions:

Place the first 9 ingredients in a food processor, and process until
smooth.

Pour mixture into a large zip-top heavy-duty plastic bag. Add chicken to
bag, and seal. Marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours, turning occasionally.

Bring 3 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan while chicken marinates;
add lentils. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 30 minutes or until lentils are
tender; drain well.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add apple and onion;
saute 2 minutes. Add curry powder; saute 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low; add
lentils, chickpeas, and salt, and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from heat; stir in cilantro, and let cool slightly. Cover and chill.

Remove chicken from bag, reserving marinade. Prepare grill. Place chicken
on grill rack coated with cooking spray, and grill 5 minutes on each side
or until the chicken is done, basting frequently with the reserved
marinade. Cut each chicken breast half into 1/4-inch slices. Yield: 6
servings (serving size: 1/2 cup salad greens, about 3/4 cup lentil mixture,
and 3 ounces chicken).
