In a medium bowl,  whisk the egg white to soft peaks. Fold in ½ teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of ground black pepper.

On a plate, add the grated Parmesan and stir through the dried oregano. Roll the chicken tenderloins in whisked in the seasoned egg white then coat with the Parmesan oregano mixture. Place on the lined grill pan and grill turning once,  just long enough (5-7 minutes) to brown the cheese and cook the chicken through. Don’t over cook the chicken as it will dry out.

While the chicken grills, toss the salad leaves, parsley, onion, if using it, and blanched beans in the dressing. Divide between 2 or 4 plates depending on how hungry you are. Top the salad with the cooked Parmesan oregano chicken and serve immediately with warm crusty bread.
