Grilled Chicken Salad

Ingredients:
1. 1/4 cup grape seed oil or olive oil
2. 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3. 1 tablespoon dried dillweed
4. 1 large clove garlic, minced
5. 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6. 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
7. 4 medium skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
For Steak seasoning:
1. 8 cups mesclun or spring salad greens or spinach
2. 3/4 cup seedless red grapes, halved
3. 1/3 cup crumbled goat cheese
4. 1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted

Method:
1. For vinaigrette, in a screw-top jar combine oil, vinegar, dillweed, garlic, pepper, and
oregano. Cover and shake well; let stand 1 hour.

2. Meanwhile, sprinkle chicken breast halves lightly with steak seasoning. Grill chicken on
the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 12 to 15 minutes or until
tender and no longer pink (170 degree F), turning once. Cool slightly.

3. Arrange salad greens on 4 plates; top with grapes, goat cheese, and pine nuts. Slice
each chicken breast and arrange one sliced breast on each salad. Shake dressing and
drizzle over the salads.
