Directions
-
Combine vinaigrette ingredients in a small bowl or a jar with a lid. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk or shake to combine.
-
Add half the vinaigrette to a large bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.
-
Preheat grill to high heat. Cook chicken for 8-10 minutes per side, or until internal temperature registers 165 degrees. Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
-
Meanwhile, arrange strips of bacon on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place tray in a cold oven, turn the heat to 375 degrees and bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to paper towel to cool and absorb residual grease.
-
Bring 2 cups water to a boil in a small pot. Carefully place eggs in boiling water with a large spoon. Cook for 7 minutes. Rinse under cold water and peel immediately. Slice in half and set aside.
-
Add lettuce to a large bowl and arrange slices of grilled chicken on top. Add avocado, tomato, blue cheese and eggs. Top with bacon and drizzle with dressing. Serve immediately.
