Ingredients

  • 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries
  • 4 cups mixed greens (spinach, arugula, and romaine)
  • 0.5 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 0.25 cup sliced almonds
  • 0.25 cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • 0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • to taste salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Once done, let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, balsamic vinegar, honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
  3. In a large salad bowl, place the mixed greens as the base. Add the sliced red onion, blackberries, and sliced chicken on top of the greens.
  4. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and sliced almonds over the assembled salad for extra flavor and crunch.
  5. Drizzle the prepared dressing over the salad mixture, using enough to coat all ingredients lightly. Gently toss the salad to combine all elements without squishing the blackberries.
  6. Divide the salad into individual serving plates or bowls and add an extra blackberry or two on top as a garnish.
