Glazed pecans, crisp apples, and sweet dried cranberries give this salad a fall taste that is sure to satisfy all year round.
Ingredients
- 2 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 (8 ounce) package mixed salad greens, or to taste
- 2 medium Fuji apples – peeled, cored, and chopped
- ½ cup dried cranberries
- ½ cup glazed pecans
- ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 3 medium green onions, thinly sliced
- ½ cup balsamic vinaigrette salad dressing, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
Season chicken with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil when the pan is hot. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Allow chicken to rest for 10 minutes, then slice into strips.
Step 3
Toss salad greens, apples, cranberries, pecans, Parmesan cheese, and green onions together in a large bowl until well blended. Top with chicken and serve with balsamic vinaigrette dressing.
