Grilled Chicken and Fresh Vegetable Salad

Posted online

A vibrant, colorful and full-flavored warm salad with an emerald green dressing. It’s an entree salad and a wonderful dish to enjoy on a summer day.

Try this salad tossed with our fantastic Fresh Basil Vinaigrette recipe.

Why try? The freshest flavors of the season are the focus of this salad, which can be a refreshing lunch or comforting, end-of-the-day dinner.

Foodie Byte: Any grill can be used for this salad. If you have an outdoor grill, you will achieve a smokier, charred flavor, but you can also get great results with a grill pan indoors.
