Preparation

Step 1

For Dressing: Whisk all ingredients in bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

For Chicken: Whisk mustard and syrup in bowl to blend. Add chicken and marinate 1 hour.

Spread sesame seeds on plate. Remove chicken from marinade; shake off excess. Coat chicken on both sides with sesame seeds. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add chicken to skillet and sauté until just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to plate. Add more oil to skillet as needed for each batch.

For Salad: Mix greens, cucumber, and tomatoes in large bowl. Toss with enough dressing to coat. Divide salad among 4 plates. Top with chicken; drizzle with any remaining dressing and serve.
