Preparation Instructions

Season and Grill Chicken

Rub the chicken breasts with Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Grill on medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Remove from grill and let rest before slicing.

Prepare Pears

Slice the pears in half and remove the core. Brush the cut sides with olive oil. Grill the pears cut side down for about 4-5 minutes until grill marks appear and they soften slightly.

Assemble Salad

In a large bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, sliced grilled chicken, grilled pear halves, and toasted pecans.

Make Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Serve

Plate the salad and serve immediately, garnished with additional pecans if desired.
