Honey Mustard Chicken Cobb Sala
This salad is absolutely delicious! It combines my love of Cobb Salad (its a serious obsession actually, if a Cobb Salad is on the menu at a restaurant chances are that’s what I am ordering) with my desire to make salads ‘fun’ for Mark since I want to eat them all the time and he’s more of a ‘Meat and Potatoes’ kind of guy. He loves this salad though, it is definitely a win in our house.
The prep work that goes into making this salad is a little longer then a normal salad but it is absolutely worth it in the end.
Serving Size: 3
Dressing/Marinade Ingredients
2-3 Skinless Chicken Breast
3 Tbsp. of Mustard
2 Tbsp. of Dijon Mustard
1/3 Cup of Honey
2 Tbsp. of Olive Oil
1-2 Tbsp. of Apple Cider Vinegar or White Vinegar
Garlic Powder to taste (or minced Garlic)
Salt and Pepper to taste
Salad Ingredients
Romaine Lettuce
Cooked Bacon diced (as much as you want LOL)
Tomatoes (Cherry or Grape)
1 Large Avocado, sliced
1/4 Cup of Red Onion diced or sliced (you could go pickled even too!)
2 Hard Boiled Eggs, sliced
Directions
Mix together all Marinade/Dressing Ingredients. Split in 1/2 (1 half for chicken marinade and the other half set aside as dressing for on top of the salad). If you have the time, you can marinate the chicken for a couple hours but I usually just cover the chicken/add it in the pan while cooking.
Heat frying pan or skillet to medium heat and add olive oil. Add chicken and 1/2 the Honey Mustard marinade/dressing with the chicken and brown/fry the chicken until it reaches 165F degrees minimum. Once cooked, remove from heat, set aside to cool and then slice into strips for on top of the salad.
Prepare the salad then add the sliced chicken. Drizzle the remaining dressing over top of the salad. Ready to eat!
