Method

Preparing the Chicken

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Coat the chicken breasts evenly with the mixture.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Preparing the Salad

  1. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    While the chicken is grilling, wash and chop the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion. Place them in a large salad bowl.

  2. 4

    Slice the Avocado

    Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice it into thin slices. Add to the salad bowl.

Making the Vinaigrette

  1. 5

    Mix the Dressing

    In a small jar or bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper. Whisk or shake until well combined.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the grilled chicken slices, feta cheese, and pine nuts to the salad bowl with the mixed greens and vegetables.

  2. 7

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the vinaigrette dressing over the salad. Toss gently to combine all ingredients.
