From Susan, our local food editor.

Grilled Chicken Salad with Apple Cider Vinaigrette

For the salad:

5 ounces romaine and iceberg salad mix

1/2 cup blueberries

1/2 cup sliced strawberries

1/2 cup diced golden delicious or Granny Smith apple

Blue cheese crumbles

Sliced almonds, roasted, or a nut blend of roasted almonds, pecans and walnuts

1 or 2 marinated grilled chicken breasts, sliced

 

Assemble the salad by layering the ingredients listed on a large platter.

For the Grilled Chicken Marinade:

2 teaspoons apple cider vinaigrette

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon coarse ground sea salt

1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper

1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

1/8 teaspoon smoked paprika

 

Mix all ingredients in a bowl or plastic bag (make sure to increase measurements if doing more than one breast). Add the chicken. Marinate 30 minutes to 2 hours. Prep grill, getting a medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard marinade. Place the marinated chicken breasts over direct heat, grilling for 3 to 5 minutes per side, until an internal thermometer registers 160 degrees. Remove from heat to a plate, covering it with foil. Allow the chicken to rest another 5 minutes or until an internal temperature of 165 is reached. Slice for a salad or serve as desired.

 

For the Apple Cider Vinaigrette:

5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lime juice

2 tablespoons honey

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

1/4 teaspoon white pepper

1/8 teaspoon onion powder

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

Pinch of cayenne pepper

 

Briskly whisk all the ingredients together to emulsify/thicken the dressing. Serve immediately. To store: Seal in airtight container and store in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before serving.

 

 

As you waste your breath complaining about life, someone out there is breathing their last.

Appreciate what you have.

Be thankful and stop complaining.

Live more, complain less.

Have more smiles, less stress.
