Method

Prepare the Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Coat the Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Assemble the Salad

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the chicken is grilling, wash and dry the mixed salad greens. Halve the cherry tomatoes and slice the cucumber.

  2. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber.

  3. 6

    Add the Chicken

    Slice the grilled chicken into strips and add it on top of the salad.

  4. 7

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle balsamic vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine. Adjust seasoning as needed.
