Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan. Season the chicken with salt, pepper and garlic, then brown each side for 4 minutes over medium heat. Deglaze with lemon juice. Transfer the fillets to a baking dish and bake at 160 °C (140 °C fan‑forced; gas: level 2–3) until cooked through, about 10–15 minutes depending on thickness.

While the chicken cooks, toast the walnuts in a dry pan over medium heat for 5 minutes, then chop finely. Clean and wash the broccoli, grate it with a coarse grater down to the stem. Wash the apple, core it and dice into ~1 cm cubes. Peel the onion, halve it and slice into thin half‑rings. Combine all prepared ingredients in a bowl with remaining oil, vinegar, salt and pepper, then serve the broccoli salad topped with the lemon‑garlic chicken.
