Description

A refreshing mixed greens salad topped with grilled chicken and a zesty vinaigrette.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 cups mixed greens (fresh spinach or arugula)
  • 1 medium cucumber, diced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 small red onion, diced
  • 1 ripe avocado, cubed
  • 1/2 cup your favorite dressing (vinaigrette recommended)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Chicken: Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Let cool.
  2. Chop Your Veggies: Dice cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and red onion into bite-sized pieces. Combine in a large mixing bowl with mixed greens.
  3. Prepare the Avocado: Halve the avocado, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and chop it into cubes. Add to the veggie mix.
  4. Add The Chicken: Once cooled, chop chicken into bite-sized pieces and toss them into the bowl with veggies.
  5. Dress It Up: Drizzle dressing over salad and mix gently until all ingredients are well-coated.
  6. Serve & Enjoy: Plate individually or serve family-style in a large bowl.
