Ingredients:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 4 cups mixed greens (such as spinach, arugula, and lettuce)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
  3. Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  4. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
  5. Remove the skillet from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips.
  6. In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, sliced strawberries, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped walnuts (if using).
  7. Add the sliced chicken breast strips to the salad bowl.
  8. Drizzle the balsamic vinaigrette dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat.
  9. Divide the salad among serving plates and sprinkle extra crumbled feta cheese on top, if desired.
  10. Serve the Baked Feta Strawberry Chicken Salad immediately and enjoy the burst of freshness in every bite! 🍽
