Summer Salad Season Crunchy  Chicken – Sweet and Savory Salad

Hello Pretty Ladies,

I hope you had a great weekend. The weather in Utah has been beautiful, and we’ve been spending a lot of time outside working on Yard and Garden projects and craving salads. With that being said, for today’s “In the Kitchen with D’Arcy,” I am sharing my recipe for my Crunchy  Chicken – Sweet and Savory Salad. It’s so good, the mix of crunchy Chicken and sweet pecans with the savory flavor of Blue cheese gives this mixed green and veggie salad that wow factor. 

Crunchy  Chicken – Sweet and Savory Salad Recipe:

2 Panko-crusted chicken breasts cut into cubes ( I use my Chicken Schnitzel recipe) (I make a couple extra that week for dinner & reserve to make this salad that week) 

One Bag of mixed greens of your choice or hand chop ( I like 1 chopped romaine, 1 chopped iceberg, and a handful of spinach) 

1/2 cup Green onions 

1 large tomato, diced

One Carrot sliced however you like 

1 cup Blue cheese crumbles

1 cup Candied pecans

Fresh pepper to taste

Balsamic glaze for drizzle 

Homemade garlic croutons (I use leftover garlic bread, cut into cubes and warm in the oven until crispy)

My dressing of choice is a homemade Italian vinaigrette or balsamic vinegar; the boys prefer blue cheese dressing. 

How to serve:

This salad serves four as a main course for dinner. If so, I make four salads in individual bowls by dividing the ingredients evenly. If serving as a side or taking it to a party, I add everything to a large wooden salad bowl and mix the lettuce with a good toss. Then, I layer all the ingredients except the salad dressing and let people add that to their liking.
