Preparation Instructions
Cook the Chicken
Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill or bake the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Add BBQ Sauce
During the last few minutes of cooking, brush the chicken breasts with BBQ sauce to coat them well. Allow the sauce to caramelize slightly.
Prepare the Salad Base
In a large bowl, chop the romaine lettuce and add it as the base of the salad. Slice the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion and add them to the bowl.
Slice the Chicken
Once the chicken is cooked and slightly cooled, slice it into strips and add it to the salad mixture.
Serve
Serve immediately, garnished with extra BBQ sauce if desired.
