Honey Mustard Chicken Cobb Salad
Description
The salad begins by whisking together Dijon mustard, honey, cider vinegar, salt, and vegetable oil to create a flavorful honey mustard dressing. Half of this dressing is reserved for serving, and the other half is used to marinate the chicken breasts for 30 minutes, infusing them with the dressing's flavors. The chicken is cooked thoroughly on the grill or stovetop and sliced into strips.
The salad composition layers chopped romaine lettuce base with sliced chicken, crispy chopped bacon, thinly sliced red onion, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced avocado, hard-boiled egg slices, and crumbled feta cheese. The reserved dressing is drizzled over the salad before serving, adding moisture and tanginess that brightens the mix of textures and flavors.
This salad offers a balanced mix of protein and fresh vegetables, suitable as a full meal. Chilling any leftover dressing in an airtight container extends its shelf life for later use.
