Salad Ingredients

Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is golden brown. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Salad Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Ingredients

    While the chicken is resting, slice the fresh mozzarella and tomatoes into thick slices. Tear the basil leaves into smaller pieces, if desired.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    On a large serving platter, alternate layers of sliced tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and basil leaves. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 5

    Add Chicken

    Slice the cooked chicken breasts into strips and arrange them on top of the salad. Serve immediately.
