Description
A delicious and healthy Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad topped with a tangy Honey Dijon Dressing, perfect for a refreshing meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 6 cups mixed salad greens (such as romaine, spinach, and arugula)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 avocado, diced
- 4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and quartered
- 6 strips cooked bacon, crumbled
- ½ cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)
- ¼ cup olive oil (for dressing)
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste (for dressing)
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- While the chicken is resting, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
- In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, avocado, hard-boiled eggs, crumbled bacon, and blue cheese if using.
- Slice the grilled chicken and add it to the salad. Drizzle the honey Dijon dressing over the top and toss gently to combine.
- Serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for up to 30 minutes before serving for a refreshing meal.
Notes
- For a lighter option, substitute grilled shrimp or tofu for the chicken.
- Add seasonal vegetables like cucumbers or bell peppers for extra crunch and flavor.
