Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Rinse the chicken briefly under cool running water, then pat dry with paper towels. Season on both sides with 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch ovenproof saute pan over high heat. Add the chicken and cook 2 minutes. Turn the chicken over and immediately place the pan in the oven. Roast 10 to 15 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F when tested with an instant-read thermometer. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, garlic, mustard, celery, celery leaves, red onion, herbs, celery seeds and cayenne pepper. Mix well.
- When the chicken is cool enough to handle, cut it into a 1/2-inch dice, add it to the mayonnaise mixture and mix well. If not serving immediately, transfer to the refrigerator to chill. Serve in avocado halves, if desired.

Steps:
- Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet. Add the mushroom pieces and saute for about 1 minute. Add the corn and saute for another 2 minutes. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon each of the salt and pepper and set aside.
- Rub the chicken on both sides with the herbes de Provence and the remaining teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Sprinkle the remaining tablespoon of oil on top.
- Heat 1 large or 2 smaller heavy cast iron or thick aluminum skillets. When very hot, add the chicken and saute over high heat for about 2 to 2 1/2 minutes on each side. Remove from heat and set aside in the pan, covered, for 5 minutes. (This step is important to assure that the chicken will be tender; it will continue to cook in its own juices while you make the salad.)
- Place the dressing ingredients in a salad bowl and mix thoroughly. When ready to serve, add the lettuce and toss well. Divide among six plates and sprinkle the mushrooms and corn on top. Slice the chicken breasts and arrange them (along with any juices) around or on top of the salad. Serve immediately.

2 IN 1 - HERBED CHICKEN & LEFTOVER CHICKEN SALAD
This may be a first for RecipeZaar - two recipes in one! I had leftovers from the Herbed Chicken with no takers (if you know what I mean). This is delicious hot, but leftovers lose its appeal. Hating to see food go to waste, I created an out-of-this world recipe for Herbed Chicken Salad. (From now on, I WILL make sure I have leftovers for the chicken salad.) I doubled the original Herbed Chicken recipe to accommodate the chicken salad. If you like traditional chicken and chicken salad, search elsewhere. This is for those who are looking for unique flavors.
