Servings

Salad:

  • kosher salt
  • black pepper
  • 8 ounces spinach fresh baby
  • 2 cups Blueberry mixed, fresh, sliced strawberries
  • 2 cups raspberry
  • 2 cups blackberry
  • 2 cups strawberry
  • ¼ cup goat cheese crumbled

Creamy Berry Balsamic Dressing:

  • ¼ cup olive oil

  • 1 cup blackberry
  • 1 cup strawberry
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt Stonyfield Organic, nonfat
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons honey

Instructions

  1. Heat a grill pan over medium high heat and spray or brush it with olive oil. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper and add them to the pan. Cook 5- 6 minutes until browned, then flip and cook another 5-6 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken from the pan and let it rest while you prepare the rest of the salad.
  2. To make the dressing, blend all of the dressing ingredients in a food processor or blender until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Strain the dressing with a strainer to remove the seeds (optional).
  3. Arrange the baby spinach in a large serving bowl. Slice the chicken and arrange the slices on top. Scatter the berries, goat cheese, and pecans over the top. Serve the Creamy Berry Balsamic Dressing on the side.
