Ingredients

  • 1 Beanstalk Farms Farmhouse Caesar Salad Kit
  • 1 organic chicken breast
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. ground black pepper
  • ½ tsp. smoked paprika 
  • ½ tsp. garlic powder

Directions

If you are baking your chicken breast, preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are grilling, set your grill to medium heat.

Pat dry the chicken breast and brush with the olive oil on all sides. Season with all of the spices. Place in a baking dish and bake in the oven for about 18 minutes or place on the grill for 18 minutes and flip it half way through. To ensure your chicken is cooked, use a cooking thermometer to check it has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Once cooked through, let your chicken rest outside of the oven or off the grill while you prepare the salad kit.

Open the Beanstalk Farms salad kit and combine all of the ingredients in a bowl. Add the salad dressing and toss.

Slice your chicken breast and place that on top of the salad. Enjoy!
