Grilled Chicken Salad with Creamy Dressing – perfectly grilled juicy chicken, sweet cherry tomatoes, creamy avocado, mixed greens, and Italian dressing make for a scrumptious salad. This simple salad is perfect for lunches, dinners, or packed up and taken on a picnic.
My family loves this salad – it is full of healthy ingredients. But I think the secret to this salad’s success is the dressing. It’s the creamy Italian dressing that really makes this salad shine. It has the tang of a traditional Italian dressing but with a smooth creaminess that makes it more decadent. This homemade dressing is also packed with Italian herbs and so easy to make. I like to use a good old-fashioned way – just shake it in a mason jar. The rest is simple to make too. Grill the chicken and slice it. Assemble the salad in your favorite salad bowl. To serve, place grilled chicken on a plate, add the green salad and pour the dressing over the top and enjoy!
To make the Grilled Chicken Salad with Creamy Dressing, you will need the following ingredients:
On a hot grill or grill pan, place 4 pieces of chicken. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with oregano, chopped rosemary, salt and black pepper to taste. Flip and repeat. Grill until no longer pink and cooked through.
In a mason jar, combine ½ cup mayonnaise, ¼ cup milk, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, ¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning, ¼ teaspoon sugar, 1 clove crushed garlic, salt and black pepper to taste. Screw the lid and shake vigorously to mix.
In a large salad bowl, combine mixed greens of choice, 1 sliced avocado, and 10 cherry tomatoes.
Serve the chicken with mixed green salad and creamy Italian dressing. Enjoy!
