How to Make the Spicy Chicken Salad
This salad is super easy to make a delicious! I love having this salad for dinner. It is full of fresh vegetables, a healthy dressing, and protein from the chicken. You will feel great after it!
Begin by making the chicken marinade. In a mixing bowl, combine sriracha, honey, and garlic powder. Slice the chicken into bite-sized pieces and put them in the chicken marinade. Marinate for at least half an hour. Once marinated, heat a skillet with a tablespoon of olive oil, add the chicken and flip them over until all the chicken is cooked.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the salad. In a salad bowl, add spring mix, shredded carrots, red onion, sliced radishes, and cherry tomatoes.
Top with cooked chicken and dress with creamy parsley-cilantro greek yogurt dressings. Toss and enjoy!
Dress with Creamy Parsley-Cilantro Greek Yogurt Dressings
The creamy parsley-cilantro Greek yogurt dressings pair perfectly with the spicy chicken and the fresh vegetables. The Greek yogurt helps cut the spice of the chicken while the parsley and cilantro provide an herby taste.
