Chicken

Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Add the chicken breasts and coat them evenly in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, grill the marinated chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Salad Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Salad Base

    In a large serving tray, layer the mixed greens evenly as the base for the salad.

  2. 4

    Add Toppings

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

  3. 5

    Slice the Chicken

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

Dressing Preparation

  1. 6

    Make the Balsamic Dressing

    In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, olive oil, salt, and black pepper until well combined and emulsified.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Drizzle the balsamic dressing over the salad before serving, or serve on the side.
