Preparation Instructions
Prepare the Chicken
If using crispy chicken, fry or bake the chicken breast until golden and cooked through. For grilled chicken, season with salt and pepper, then grill until fully cooked. Let it rest and slice into strips.
Assemble the Salad
In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, shredded carrots, shredded red cabbage, and halved cherry tomatoes.
Add Chicken and Toppings
Top the salad with sliced chicken, bleu cheese crumbles, glazed pecans, and croutons.
Dress the Salad
Drizzle the balsamic vinaigrette over the salad just before serving and toss gently to combine.
