Grilled Chicken And Strawberry Salad Wrap Recipes

LONGHORN GRILLED CHICKEN STRAWBERRY SALAD

Steps:

• Lay the greens out on a platter or on individual serving plates. Arrange the strawberries, grapes, mandarin oranges and candied pecans on salad, leaving a space in the center for the chicken. When cooked and allowed to cool for a few minutes, slice chicken at an angle and place in the center of the salad. Top with red onion slices and Feta cheese. Pass the dressing.
• Mix all ingredients together. If using a jam that's chunky, dressing may be blended. Thin wth a bit of water if needed. Taste and adjust, adding salt and pepper to taste, making a bit sweeter or a bit tarter if needed. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use. Pass the dressing at the table so everyone may add as much or as little as they wish.
• When ready to cook, heat your grill to high for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Pound each chicken breast between sheets of waxed paper or plastic wrap with a rolling pin or a mallet to 1/4-inch thickness. Add to a ziploc bag and add the rest of the ingredients. Marinade for at least an hour and if time allows, marinade longer. When ready to cook, remove chicken, discard marinade and pat chicken dry.
• Place chicken on the grill, smooth side down and grill for 2 to 3 minutes or until nice grill lines show. Turn and continue to grill until golden brown and just cooked through.
• Place each chicken cutlet on a large plate as they're done and allow to rest, lightly covered for several minutes before slicing and dividing among the salads.
• If making indoors, heat a large skillet with a tablespoon or two of oil over high heat, proceed with the recipe as stated above, watching the heat level and turning down if necessary.

GRILLED CHICKEN AND STRAWBERRY SALAD WRAP

Steps:

• For the balsamic vinaigrette: Whisk together the olive oil, vinegar and salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Measure out 1/2 cup for the chicken and set aside; refrigerate the remaining vinaigrette for another use.
• For the chicken and wrap: Preheat a grill or grill pan.
• Place the chicken breast in a large plastic storage bag. Seal the bag, leaving a small opening, then use a rolling pin to pound the breast to a uniform thickness. Pour in about a quarter of the reserved balsamic vinaigrette, then seal the bag and toss it around to fully coat the chicken.
• Grill the chicken until it's cooked in the middle, about 5 minutes per side. Set aside to cool slightly. Dice up the chicken when it's cool enough to handle.
• Add the salad greens to a large bowl. Add half of the remaining dressing and toss it to coat the greens. Add more if it needs it. Add the chicken, pecans, strawberries and green onions. Toss it gently a few times until it's all combined. Top with the crumbled goat cheese and toss a couple of times.
• Place an equal amount of salad down the middle of each tortilla. Roll up, then slice in half.
