1
Prepare the Chicken
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with blackening seasoning. Make sure to coat them evenly.
2
Cook the Chicken
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil to the skillet and place the seasoned chicken breasts in the skillet. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side until the chicken is blackened and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes.
3
Prepare the Eggs
Hard boil the eggs by placing them in a pot of boiling water for about 10-12 minutes. Once done, cool them in ice water, peel, and slice them.
4
Prepare the Tomatoes
Wash the tomatoes and chop them into bite-sized pieces.

5
Combine Ingredients
In a large bowl, slice the cooked chicken into strips. Add the chopped tomatoes, sliced hard-boiled eggs, cheddar cheese, jack cheese, and croutons.
6
Add Dressing
Drizzle your choice of dressing over the salad. Start with a small amount, and add more to taste.
7
Toss and Serve
Toss all the ingredients together until well combined. Serve immediately for the best flavor.
