Salad Ingredients

Balsamic Blue Cheese Dressing Ingredients

Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spinach

    Wash the fresh spinach thoroughly under cold running water. Pat dry with a clean towel or use a salad spinner to remove excess water.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

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

  3. 3

    Slice the Strawberries and Cucumber

    While the chicken is grilling, hull and slice the strawberries. Slice the cucumber into thin rounds.

  4. 4

    Chop the Pecans

    Chop the pecans into smaller pieces if they are whole. If using pre-chopped, skip this step.

Dressing Preparation

  1. 5

    Mix the Dressing

    In a bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Then fold in the blue cheese crumbles gently.

Salad Assembly

  1. 6

    Combine the Ingredients

    In a large salad bowl, combine the washed spinach, sliced strawberries, sliced cucumber, grilled chicken slices, and chopped pecans.

  2. 7

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle the balsamic blue cheese dressing over the salad mixture. Toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly with the dressing.
