Method

Main Preparation

  1. 1

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salad Base

    In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced cucumber. Toss gently to mix the ingredients evenly.

  3. 3

    Make the Dressing

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

  4. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    Slice the grilled chicken breast and add it to the salad bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients. Sprinkle feta cheese on top.

Optional Add-ons Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare Avocado

    Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Cut into slices and add to the salad if desired.

  2. 6

    Add Croutons

    If using croutons, sprinkle them over the top of the salad before serving.
