1
Prepare the Ingredients
Wash and dry the mixed greens thoroughly. Chop the tomatoes and slice the pepperoncini peppers. Set aside.
2
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the applewood smoked bacon until crispy. Once done, remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat. Once cooled, chop into bite-sized pieces.
3
Grill the Chicken
Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill on medium heat for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through and juices run clear. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
4
Prepare the Ham
Chop the ham into bite-sized cubes.

5
Combine Salad Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed greens, chopped tomatoes, sliced pepperoncini peppers, grilled chicken strips, chopped ham, and crispy bacon pieces.
6
Add Cheese
Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the salad mixture.
7
Toss and Serve
Gently toss all ingredients together until well combined. Serve immediately in individual bowls or on a large platter.
