Instructions
Prep: Mix up the ingredients for the chicken marinade in an airtight container. Add the chicken, and let marinate in the fridge for 4-6 hours. Cook the bacon according to package directions. Cook your eggs in a pot of boiling water for about 12-15 minutes, then remove and rinse under cold water.
Cook the chicken: Cook the chicken on the grill, until no longer pink in the middle. If your chicken breasts are quite large, slice them through lengthwise so they cook quicker and evenly. You can also place them on a pan and cook at 350 degrees F, until no longer pink in the middle. Set aside.
Dressing: Add dressing ingredients to a jar and shake well - make sure the lid is on tightly so it doesn't spill everywhere (not that I know from experience).
Assemble Salad: Toss all ingredients together in a large salad bowl and add the dressing just before serving.
Serve + Store: The assembled salad with the dressing keeps in the fridge well for about two days. If you're wanting to make it last for meals all week, I recommend keeping all components separate once they're prepapred, and assembling each salad as you're ready to eat it.
