Share recipe
Description
This light salad is based on one that is found on the menu of a large chain arcade/restaurant menu.
Ingredients
- 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 4 cups salad greens
- 1 Granny Smith apple, cored and sliced
- ½ cup candied walnuts
- ¼ cup crumbled blue cheese
- ¼ cup raspberry vinaigrette, or to taste
Directions
- 1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
- 2. Season chicken with seasoned salt and grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- 3. Mix salad greens, apple slices, walnuts, and blue cheese together in a bowl. Drizzle raspberry vinaigrette over the salad and toss to coat; divide salad between 2 plates.
- 4. Cut chicken into strips and place half the strips atop each salad portion.
