Cooking Tips

• Make sure to let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
• If you don't have a grill pan or skillet, you can also cook the chicken on an outdoor grill.
• Feel free to add additional toppings to the salad, such as sliced almonds or avocado, for extra flavor and texture.

Storage and Serving

• This salad is best served immediately after assembling to maintain the crispiness of the chicken.
• If you have leftovers, store the salad and dressing separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator.
• The chicken may lose some of its crispiness when stored, but it will still be delicious.
