Method

Preparing the Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and balsamic vinegar. Add the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    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 fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Once cooked, remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Assembling the Salad

  1. 3

    Prepare the Salad Base

    In a large salad bowl, add the mixed greens as the base.

  2. 4

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle gorgonzola cheese crumbles and glazed cranberry walnuts over the mixed greens.

  3. 5

    Combine with Chicken

    Slice the grilled chicken into strips and place on top of the salad.

Serving

  1. 6

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle balsamic dressing over the salad according to taste.

  2. 7

    Toss and Serve

    Gently toss the salad to combine. Serve immediately for the best flavor.
