Salad Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken or Steak

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken or steak and season with fajita seasoning. Cook until the meat is fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes for chicken and 4-6 minutes per side for steak. Remove from heat and let it rest before slicing.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the meat is cooking, chop the mixed greens, slice the cherry tomatoes in half, and julienne the bell peppers and onion.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, and onion. Top with sliced chicken or steak and sprinkle with both cheddar and pepperjack cheese.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Toss the salad lightly to combine and serve immediately.
