Grilled Chicken Strawberry Poppyseed Salad

Step 1

Place the chicken in a baking dish or a resealable bag. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper. Pour it over the chicken and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or even overnight.

Step 2

Heat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for 5 to 6 minutes per side. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly.

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the butter lettuce with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the strawberries, pineapple, blueberries, and oranges and toss well. Add the chicken and pecans on top, and drizzle on the dressing to serve.

Step 4

Combine the vinegar, orange juice, lime juice, honey, shallot, garlic, mustard powder, salt, and pepper in a food processor and blend until combined. With the processor on, stream in the olive oil until the dressing is emulsified and comes together. Stir in the poppy seeds with a spoon and serve. This stays great in the fridge for a few days!
