Instructions

For the dressing, you can either stir it together in a bowl while gradually pouring in the oil until everything is fully blended, or opt for an immersion blender. If you choose the blender, put all the ingredients in a tall container and blend until smooth and well-mixed. Personally, I prefer using an immersion blender for a thicker and creamier result. Once complete, set it aside or chill it for later use.
Mix the salt, pepper, garlic, and onion powder in a small dish and coat the chicken thoroughly. Preheat your grill or a grill pan to a medium to medium-high setting and lightly coat it with oil. When it’s hot, place the chicken on it and grill for approximately 5 minutes on each side or until fully cooked. The chicken’s internal temperature should reach 165°F. Transfer to a cutting board and let it rest.
In a spacious serving dish, arrange the salad greens followed by the tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, avocado, crispy bacon bits, and sliced hard-boiled eggs. Slice the grilled chicken thinly and add it to the salad as you like. Pour the dressing over everything and toss, or offer it separately. Enjoy your meal!

Notes

For a sweeter dressing, adjust the amount of honey to suit your taste.
Customize the salad greens with your preferred mix of leafy greens.
Prepare the dressing and salad ingredients in advance for quicker assembly before serving.
