Description
A bold grinder chicken salad bowl made with chopped chicken, deli style ingredients, crisp vegetables, and a creamy tangy dressing. Perfect for meal prep or a filling lunch.
Ingredients
2 cups cooked chicken breast, chopped
1 cup romaine lettuce, finely chopped
1/2 cup iceberg lettuce, shredded
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup sliced turkey breast
1/4 cup sliced cheese, chopped
1/4 cup sliced pepperoncini
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Chop chicken, lettuce, tomatoes, red onion, turkey, and cheese into small, even pieces and place them into a large mixing bowl.
2. Add pepperoncini and parsley to the bowl and mix lightly to distribute ingredients evenly.
3. In a separate bowl, combine mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
4. Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and fold everything together slowly to keep ingredients distinct.
5. Let the salad sit for a few minutes, then mix lightly again and serve.
Notes
Chop ingredients evenly for best texture in every bite.
Letting the salad rest briefly improves flavor blending.
Keep lettuce separate if storing for later to maintain freshness.
