Salad Base

Grilled Chicken

Balsamic Vinaigrette

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well with the marinade. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.

Grilling

  1. 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 the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Once cooked, let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, place the mixed greens and halved cherry tomatoes. Top with sliced grilled chicken. Drizzle the balsamic vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to combine.
