When it comes to weekday meals I'm all for quick and easy prep! I always keep chicken on hand along with a few fresh ingredients so if I'm running behind I can throw a few things together. This BBQ chicken salad is perfect for the the season and utilizes ingredients most of us already have in the fridge.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Romaine lettuce heads, chopped
  • 1 C Cooked or grilled chicken breast, chopped
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 Tomato, Chopped
  • 1/4 C BBQ sauce 
  • 2 tbsp. Yogurt Ranch
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Croutons:

  • 1-2 Slices of Sliced Sourdough or 1/4 French Loaf
  • 1/4 Butter
  • 1 tbsp. Parmesan Cheese 
  • 1-2 Dashes Garlic Salt

Directions: 

 

Croutons:

Heat butter in large skillet over low-medium heat. Cut bread into cubes and place in skillet once butter is completely melted. Cook, occasionally flipping bread until golden brown, about 6-10 minutes. Add 1-2 dashes garlic salt and parmesan cheese, cook for another minute. 

Salad Prep:

Place chopped romaine into a large salad bowl. Layer with tomatoes, cucumber and croutons. Roughly dice cooked chicken breast and add to salad. Combine yogurt ranch and BBQ sauce of your choice in a small bowl. Drizzle over salad and serve.
