This is a tasty and cool salad that is perfect for a summer supper. If you don't like broccoli and carrots, substitute your favorite fresh vegetables! Ingredients:
1/2 cup orange juice |
1/2 cup white wine vinegar |
1/4 cup olive oil |
4 tablespoons salt-free garlic and herb seasoning blend |
1 1/2 tablespoons white sugar |
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves |
1 head romaine lettuce- rinsed, dried and chopped |
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained |
1 cup chopped fresh broccoli |
1 cup chopped baby carrots |
Directions:
1. Preheat grill for medium-high heat.
2. In a bowl, whisk together the orange juice, vinegar, olive oil, seasoning blend, and sugar. Set aside about 1/2 cup for basting.
3. Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill chicken for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, basting frequently with the reserved portion of the dressing, or until juices run clear. Cool, and cut into strips. Discard basting sauce.
4. In a large bowl, toss together the lettuce, oranges, broccoli, and carrots. Top the salad with grilled chicken strips, and drizzle with remaining dressing to serve.
