Creating your Spring Salad with Grilled Chicken is a simple process! Follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

2. Grill the Chicken: Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from grill and let it rest for a few minutes.

3. Slice the Chicken: Once rested, slice the grilled chicken into strips.

4. Prepare the Salad Base: In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, avocado, shredded carrots, and red onion.

5. Add the Chicken: Gently toss the sliced grilled chicken into the salad mixture.

6. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

7. Dress the Salad: Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss lightly until all the ingredients are well-coated.

8. Add Cheese and Herbs: Top with crumbled feta cheese and sprinkle with fresh herbs for added flavor.

9. Serve: Transfer the salad to individual bowls or a large serving platter.
