Ingredients

Seared Chicken
  • 1 ½ lb chicken breast boneless, skinless
  • 1-2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • garlic powder
  • sea salt
  • black pepper
Salad
  • ½ cup red onion chopped
  • 1 cup cucumber sliced
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes halved
  • 4 lices turkey bacon or regular bacon, crumbled, cooked
  • ½ cup blue cheese crumbled
  • 8 cups romaine lettuce chopped
  • 1 avocado chopped
  • honey mustard dressing

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Season both sides of the chicken breast with garlic powder, salt and pepper. To cook the chicken, you can either grill it on an indoor or outdoor grill or sear it on the stovetop. To sear: add 1-2 teaspoons olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Place chicken breast in hot oil. Cook chicken about 6–7 minutes on each side, or until juices run clear. Remove from skillet and let sit for 5 minutes to cool before slicing for the salad. This step can be done in advance, and you can cook multiple chicken breasts together if you’re meal prepping.
  2. While the chicken cooks, make the dressing by blending all ingredients in a blender.
  3. For the mason jars: Line up 4 32 ounce mason jars. Add 3 Tablespoons of dressing to each jar, then start layering ingredients in this order: red onion, cucumber, tomatoes, chicken, bacon, blue cheese, avocado and romaine. Avocado can be chopped and added the morning of if you’re worried about it browning.
  4. When ready to enjoy, shake jar and pour into a serving bowl.

Notes

  • Prepare chicken in advance and store for easy assembly throughout the week.
  • Keep bacon and avocado in separate containers to maintain crispness and prevent browning.
  • Store dressing separately to avoid soggy salad layers.
  • Add avocado just before eating to keep it fresh looking.
