Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Chicken
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them evenly with the marinade. Let sit for at least 30 minutes.
Cook the Chicken
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Cook the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Prepare the Vegetables
While the chicken is cooking, chop the lettuce, dice the tomato, and thinly slice the red onion.
Assembly
Assemble the Salad
In a large bowl, layer the chopped lettuce, diced tomato, and sliced red onion. Add the sliced chicken on top.
Add Toppings
Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the salad and drizzle with ranch dressing. Top with tortilla chips for added crunch.
Serve
Toss the salad gently to combine all ingredients. Serve immediately, garnished with extra tortilla chips on the side.
