- Marinate the chicken breasts in the marinade below for 1-2 hrs.
- About 20 min before salad time, grill the chicken and vegetables till the chicken is hard and golden (about 7 to 9 min) and the vegetables( with the exception of the avocado ) are soft and look well grilled. Allow them to rest for 10-15 min before assembling so they are still hot but definitely not warm. Once cooled down, cut the vegetables (except tomatoes) into small bite-sized pcs.
- To assemble the salad, make four small beds of Bibb lettuce on as many chilled plates and top with the minced grilled vegetables. Now carefully slice each chicken breast into 6 thin strips trying to maintain the shape of the breast, and place it on top of one of the salads. Garnish with avocado slices.
- Repeat the procedure with the remaining salads. Serve with the remaining vinaigrette.
