Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

For the Dressing:
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup champagne vinegar
2 tablespoons mustard (whole grain dijon)
1 tablespoon lemon juice (fresh-squeezed preferred)
2 tablespoons honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
For the Salad:
9 ounces chicken (about 3 cups chopped chicken)
5 ounces baby spinach and kale mix
8 ounces strawberries (tops removed and quartered)
1 cup glazed walnuts
1 cup feta cheese
1/3 cup red onion (finely chopped)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Prepare the champagne dressing first by combining extra-virgin olive oil, champagne vinegar, whole-grain Dijon mustard, lemon juice, honey, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a Mason jar with lid.
  • Secure the lid tightly and shake well until all ingredients are well-combined. Refrigerate while you prepare your salad.
  • If starting with uncooked chicken breast, prepare chicken by lightly brushing 3 chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkling with salt and pepper.
  • Place in a foil or parchment paper-lined pan and bake on 350 F for 25 minutes until internal temperature of chicken reaches 165 F.
  • Slice chicken into pieces. Rather than baking, the chicken breast may alternatively be grilled , but substituting boneless chicken breast.
  • Combine chicken, quartered strawberries, walnuts, red onion, and feta cheese in a large bowl. Toss liberally. Top onto bed of mixed greens.
  • Serve alongside champagne dressing-be sure to shake or whisk dressing well before serving, as ingredients will settle.
