How to Make Barbecue Chicken And Grape Salad

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small bowl, combine onion powder, paprika, chili powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
  3. Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
  4. Heat olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Add chicken breasts to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes per side, until nicely browned.
  6. Wrap the skillet handle in foil for oven safety.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  8. Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken cool slightly before refrigerating until completely chilled (at least 30 minutes).
  9. Once chilled, chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
  10. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 teaspoon salt, halved green grapes, red onion, celery, parsley, barbecue sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey.
  11. Add the chopped chicken to the bowl.
  12. Gently toss to coat the chicken evenly with the dressing.
  13. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts before serving and enjoy!
