Ingredients

– 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced

Instructions

Making Tuscan Chicken Salad with Sun-Dried Tomatoes is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Cook the Chicken: If not using pre-cooked chicken, season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Grill or pan-fry until cooked through (about 6-7 minutes per side). Let cool before shredding or dicing.
2. Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until well combined.
3. Combine Salad Ingredients: In a large bowl, add the mixed greens, sun-dried tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, red onion, olives, and basil.
4. Add Chicken: Fold the cooked chicken into the salad mixture gently to avoid breaking up the ingredients.
5. Dress the Salad: Drizzle the dressing over the salad. Toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
6. Add Cheese: Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top of the salad for added flavor.
7. Serve Immediately: You can serve the salad right away or let it sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

These steps make it easy to prepare a delicious Tuscan Chicken Salad that will impress your family and friends.
