How to Make Yummiest Grilled Chicken Salad

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a glass dish, combine 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  3. Marinate the chicken, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight.
  4. Grill the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  5. Remove chicken from grill and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  6. Discard the marinade.
  7. While chicken rests, prepare the dressing: In a food processor or blender, combine 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp honey, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Blend until smooth.
  8. Slice the grilled chicken into bite-sized strips and place them in a large bowl.
  9. Add 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion rings, 1 cup snap peas, 1/2 cup dried cranberries, and 1/4 cup chopped bell pepper to the bowl.
  10. Pour the dressing over the chicken and vegetables.
  11. Add 5 cups of mixed greens or your favorite lettuce and toss gently to combine.
