Salad Preparation
Prepare the Chicken
Grill the chicken breasts over medium-high heat until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center, about 6-7 minutes per side. Allow to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Chop the Salad Base
Wash and chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place in a large salad bowl.
Slice the Apples
Core and slice the honey crisp apples into thin wedges. Add them to the salad bowl.
Add the Pecans and Herbs
Sprinkle the candied pecans, chopped dill, and tarragon over the salad.
Add the Cheese
Grate or crumble the white cheddar cheese and add it to the salad.
Dress the Salad
Drizzle the creamy Dijon dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all ingredients.
Serve
Serve immediately, garnished with additional herbs if desired.
