Preparación

1. 1

   --- Prep the Ingredients. ---

2. 2

   Cook the eggs. You can cook them on the stove top in boiling water for 8 minutes, or check out my recipe for Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs.

3. 3

   Cook the chicken. Season a chicken breast with salt and pepper on both sides and pan sear on a skillet over medium heat. I prefer to cover it with the lid, so it will cook more evenly. Make sure that the internal temperature of the meat is at least 165°F.

4. 4

   Cook the bacon. Put the slices on a baking pan with wire rack and bake at 400°F for about 18 minutes or until cooked. Then place on a paper towel to remove the excess grease.

5. 5

   --- Make the Balsamic Vinaigrette. ---

6. 6

   Put all the dressing ingredients in a bowl (1/3 cup olive oil, 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 clove minced garlic, ½ tbsp maple syrup, salt and pepper to taste, then stir until well combined. I like to refrigerate it until ready to use.

8. 8

   To assemble the salad, place the chopped lettuce in a large bowl, top it with sliced seared chicken, sliced eggs, chopped bacon, halved cherry tomatoes, and crumbled feta cheese. Add balsamic vinaigrette, toss and enjoy!
