Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Add the chicken breasts and coat them thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    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 the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  1. 3

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, gorgonzola cheese, dried cranberries, and walnuts. Toss gently to mix the ingredients.

  2. 4

    Glaze the Walnuts

    In a small pan, combine walnuts and honey over low heat. Stir frequently until the walnuts are coated and slightly caramelized, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Dressing Preparation

    Make the Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
