How to Make Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad
- Grill the chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill over medium heat for 6-8 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Let it rest, then slice it up.
2. Assemble the salad: In a big bowl, layer your mixed greens. Add the grilled chicken, bacon, eggs, avocado, tomatoes, blue cheese, and red onion in sections (because presentation matters, duh).
3.Make the dressing: Whisk olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper in a small bowl
4. Drizzle and serve: Pour the dressing over the salad or serve it on the side for dipping. Mix it all up and dig in!
Pro Tips
- Wanna save time? Use pre-cooked chicken or store-bought rotisserie chicken.
- Make it low-carb by skipping the honey in the dressing.
- Not a fan of blue cheese? Swap it for shredded cheddar or goat cheese.
