Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, mix olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Add chicken breasts and ensure they are well-coated. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

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

Salad Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Salad Base

    In a large serving tray, layer the mixed greens evenly as the base.

  2. 4

    Add Chicken and Toppings

    Slice the grilled chicken and arrange it on top of the mixed greens. Sprinkle gorgonzola cheese crumbles and glazed cranberry walnuts over the chicken.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 5

    Make the Balsamic Dressing

    In a bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Gradually whisk in the olive oil until the dressing is emulsified.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Drizzle the balsamic dressing over the salad just before serving. Toss lightly to combine if desired, and enjoy your Balsamic Chicken Party Tray!
