Method

Chicken Marinade

Prepare the Marinade

In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Marinate the Chicken

Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Cook the Chicken

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 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.

Salad Assembly

Cook the Bacon

While the chicken is grilling, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the skillet and place on paper towels to drain excess grease. Crumble into pieces once cooled.

Grill the Tomatoes

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and toss them with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill them for about 2-3 minutes until slightly charred.

Prepare the Salad

In a large bowl, combine fresh spinach, grilled cherry tomatoes, crumbled bacon, and feta cheese.

Dress the Salad

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Serve

Slice the grilled chicken and arrange it on top of the salad. Slice the avocado and add it to the salad. Serve immediately.
