Chicken Dinner Salad with Smoked Gouda and Grapes

This delicious dinner salad is loaded with chicken, grapes, apple, and smoked gouda.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale

Dressing

  • 1/4 c. reduced fat sour cream or plain yogurt
  • 2 tbsp. honey
  • 2 tbsp. white balsamic or white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. poppy seeds (optional, don’t need buy these just for this)

Salad

  • 2 chicken breasts about 1 pound total
  • seasoned salt
  • 12 oz. mixed baby greens
  • 4 oz. smoked gouda diced into 1/2″ cubes
  • 2 c. grapes cut lengthwise in half (I used a medley of green, red, and black, but any variety will be fine)
  • 1 large apple diced into bite-sized pieces

Instructions

  1. Spray a skillet with cooking spray, and heat over medium-high heat. Sprinkle both sides of chicken breasts with seasoned salt, and cook in hot skillet until heated through (12-15 minutes). Allow to cool slightly, then dice into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Meanwhile, add all dressing ingredients to a container with a tight fitting lid. Shake it very, very well, stirring once to evenly distribute the honey. Set aside.
  3. In a large salad bowl, add salad greens, gouda, grapes, apple, and chicken. Pour prepared dressing over the salad, and toss to coat. Dinner is served!

Notes

I think alfalfa sprouts would be a great addition to this salad. They were not available at my grocery store, but I will try to add them next time!
