Recipe Box, Duke’s Parmesan Chicken Strawberry Balsamic Salad

the Painted Apron

7 years ago

This elegant summer salad is simple easy to throw together on a busy weeknight

Strawberries are becoming irresistible in the market right now and paired with fresh greens and a luscious baked chicken, your tastebuds are in for a treat

The chicken is coated with Duke’s Mayo and Parmesan

You can prep the tenders right in the pan, spread, sprinkle, turn over, repeat

Pop them in the oven for 30-45 minutes {time depends on the size of the chicken} and go have a glass of wine and relax 🍷

If you use pre-washed greens, the salad is a snap to prepare

As the chicken bakes, the mayonnaise breaks down, basting the tenders

Use a spoon to scoop up the pan juices and baste tops of chicken about half way through baking time and add a few more sprinkles of cheese

Place salad greens on plate or in a pasta bowl and add chopped pecans, sliced strawberries, and add optional crisp bacon pieces and crumbled bleu cheese if desired

Top salad with 2-3 chicken tenders

Drizzle salad with Strawberry Balsamic Vinaigrette
