Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the 2 handfuls of baby greens thoroughly under cold water and gently pat them dry. Using fresh, crisp greens will greatly enhance the salad’s flavor.
Step 2
Now, let’s prepare the special Yogurt Walnut Dressing that will elevate your salad. Start by measuring out 4 tablespoons of finely chopped walnuts.
Step 3
Next, add 6 tablespoons of thick plain yogurt to the chopped walnuts. The creamy texture of the yogurt will make the dressing wonderfully rich.
Step 4
Then, add 2 tablespoons of honey for a subtle sweetness. If you prefer, you can substitute honey with corn syrup.
Step 5
Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to balance the flavors and create a clean finish for the dressing. Be careful not to add too much.
Step 6
Finally, stir in 1 tablespoon of lemon juice for a bright, tangy note. Whisk everything together until the ingredients are smoothly combined. Your delicious Yogurt Walnut Dressing is now ready!
Step 7
Arrange the 2 handfuls of prepared baby greens on your serving plate, creating a fresh and appealing base for the salad.
Step 8
Top the greens with the steamed chicken breast, torn or sliced into bite-sized pieces. Sprinkle with the sweet cranberries and the crunchy walnuts. If you don’t have walnuts, feel free to use any other nuts you have on hand, like almonds or pecans – they will add lovely texture and flavor!
Step 9
Generously drizzle the homemade Yogurt Walnut Dressing over the assembled salad. The combination of nutty walnuts, zesty yogurt dressing, and tender chicken breast is truly irresistible! Enjoy a healthy and delicious meal today!
