Salad Base

Chicken Tenders

Dressing

Toppings

Method

Prepare Chicken Tenders

  1. 1

    Coat the Chicken

    Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour (seasoned with salt and pepper), one with a whisked egg, and one with bread crumbs. Dredge each chicken tender first in flour, then dip in the egg, and finally coat with bread crumbs.

  2. 2

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded chicken tenders. Fry for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Assemble Salad

  1. 3

    Prepare Salad Base

    In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, and quartered hard-boiled eggs.

  2. 4

    Add Chicken and Toppings

    Slice the fried chicken tenders and arrange them over the salad. Sprinkle bleu cheese crumbles and crumbled bacon on top.

  3. 5

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle honey mustard dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine all ingredients.

Serve

  1. 6

    Plate the Salad

    Divide the salad among serving plates, ensuring each plate has a good mix of chicken, toppings, and dressing. Top with garlic croutons before serving.
