Preparation Instructions

1. Prepare the Chicken

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a shallow dish, set out the flour, and in another dish, whisk the eggs together. In a third dish, place the chopped almonds. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then dredge each piece in flour, dip in the egg, and coat with chopped almonds.

2. Cook the Chicken

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the almond-coated chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and finish cooking in the oven for an additional 10-15 minutes.

3. Prepare the Salad

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the salad. In a large bowl, combine the romaine lettuce, spring mix, grape tomatoes (halved), sliced red onion, Monterey Jack cheese, and cheddar cheese. Toss gently to mix.

4. Assemble the Dish

Once the chicken is cooked, slice it and place it on top of the salad. Garnish with croutons and serve immediately. You can also drizzle a light vinaigrette or dressing of your choice over the salad before serving.
