For the Salad

  1. Season chicken breast with salt and pepper.
  2. Preheat your grill or grill pan on medium heat.
  3. Grill chicken until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. The internal temperature should register 160. 
  4. To achieve blackened grill marks, do not move the chicken breast once you lay it on the grill and then again once your flip it over.
  5. Let chicken breast rest at least 5 minutes, I like mine to cool off completely before adding it to the salad.
