Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad

May 12, 2013 · 3 Comments

Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad

I'm a salad lover. I tend to get hooked on a particular salad for a week or so, until I move on to the next one. This week it's been cobb salad.

I had all the main ingredients and I figured it was time. It's one of those salads thatย is a meal, which makes life easy.ย I must also mention that itย was freakishly warm in the Seattle area the past two weeks making it perfect salad-as-a-meal weather.

Here's my favorite mix of this American tradition, and of course feel free to improvise with cucumbers, olives, and other good stuff.

Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad

You can also cook the chicken breasts in a skillet or bake in an oven at 350ยฐF for about 15 minutes.
I sometimes preferย this honey mustard vinaigretteย with this salad, or choose your favorite dressing.

Calories: 451kcal

Ingredients

Grilled Chicken

  • 1 pound chicken breasts sliced into strips
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons high heat oil
  • ยผ teaspoon salt
  • ยผ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ยผ teaspoon dried basil
  • ยผ teaspoon onion powder

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Chicken

  • Combine the chicken strips and the remaining ingredients in a non-reactive bowl or other container and marinate for at least 30 minutes if possible. It can be marinated overnight as well.
  • Warm up your grill to about 450ยฐF/230ยฐC.ย Grill one side of the chicken strips for about 5ย minutes or so and then flip to the other side for another 5 minutes, or until the strips are just cooked and tender.

Salad

  • Hard-boiled eggs: Bring a pot of water to a steady boil. Add enough water so the eggs are covered in water. Using a spoon, gently place each egg in the pot to avoid cracking the shell. Boil for 15 minutes, then immediately cool the eggs in cold water. Refrigerate for a week or so.
  • Layer the ingredientsย in a salad bowlย or on serving platter. Can be covered and refrigerated for a day or so.

    That is one gorgeous plate of food. I particularly love that plate. It's so unusual! I've never made an Italian Herb Vinaigrette before but that looks very easy. Thanks for sharing.
