Honey Mustard Chicken Salad

Earlier this week we fired up the grill to cook some chicken. Rather than eat the chicken alone, (that gives me the "ick" 😂) I decided to chop mine up to make a yummy little salad. Here's what I did! 

Honey Mustard Chicken Salad

Ingredients for the chicken marinade: 

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup of dijon mustard

1/4 cup of honey

Salt/Pepper

Ingredients for the salad:

Romaine lettuce

Cherry tomatoes

Bell Peppers

Cucumbers

Avocado 

Green onions

Cheddar cheese, shredded

Ingredients for the dressing:

2 tablespoons of dijon mustard

2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons of olive oil

1 tablespoon of honey

1 tsp minced garlic

Salt/Pepper

Directions: 

1. Marinate your chicken using a large Ziploc bag for at least 2 hours. All day or overnight is even better!
2. Grill your chicken until it is completely cooked through. Cut into small, bite-sized pieces. 
3. Fill a large plate with your salad ingredients.  Feel free to add, or substitute based on your preferences. Make sure everything is cut into small pieces of about the same size. 
4. Mix up your dressing ingredients in a bowl using a whisk. 
5. Top your salad with your chicken, and as much dressing as you like. 
6. Store leftover salad dressing in the fridge. 

This was really, really good! It was so good that I'm thinking it will be on the menu next week, too. 😉
