Description
The Grilled Chicken Salad is a fresh and healthy dish. This salad is packed with protein and vitamins while being gentle on the digestive system.
Instructions
- It is highly recommended to thoroughly wash all vegetables to ensure they are free of dirt and contaminants. The method of cleaning may vary, so please use your preferred approach to ensure they are properly cleaned.
- Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium heat.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and oregano (optional).
- Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F or 75°C).
- While the chicken cooks, assemble the salad by combining the leafy greens, cucumber, red bell pepper, and tomatoes in a large bowl.
