I'm so excited that it's strawberry season and grill season! I combined the two into a Balsamic Grilled Chicken Strawberry Salad. This was so delicious and so summery and the colors are stunning! This will definitely make a frequent appearance on our summer menu!
CREAMY BALSAMIC GRILLED CHICKEN STRAWBERRY SALAD
Print This Recipe
1/3 c. olive oil
1/3 c. balsamic vinegar
1 tsp. herbs de provence
1 tsp. salt
1 Tb. heavy cream
1 lb. boneless chicken breasts or chicken tenders
Combine first five ingredients. Place chicken in a bag or container and pour marinade overall. Marinate for at least 1 hour. Grill until chicken is fully cooked - juices will run clear.
Salad:
1/2 lb. baby spinach
1/2 lb. strawberries, cleaned and sliced
1/4 c. feta cheese (blue or gorgonzola would also be great!)
1/4 c. pecans, chopped
Arrange on a platter or in a salad bowl. Top with grilled chicken. Drizzle dressing over all.
Dressing:
3 Tb. olive oil
3 Tb. balsamic vinegar
1 tsp. dijon mustard
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. heavy cream
Combine all ingredients and shake or whisk well to combine.
This flavor combination just screams spring to me. I love the pop of color and sweetness the strawberries give. It's only 10am and I'm already hungry!
