Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad 

CHIPOTLE DRESSING  + PINEAPPLE

Chicken Cobb salad with chipotle ranch dressing and grilled pineapple is a fun adaptation of the American classic.

Cook THE EGGS

1

If using eggs, pop them in boiling water for 7-8 minutes for hard-boiled with a slightly jammy yolk. Place cooked eggs in cold water for a couple of minutes. Set aside.

SEASON THE CHICKEN

2

Cut chicken breasts into 3 pieces and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika and cumin on both sides.

GRILL CHICKEN

3

Grill chicken pieces on medium-high for 5 minutes on each side. The thicker pieces might need 6-7 minutes. Rest the chicken before slicing.

CUT THE PINEAPPLE

4

Peel off the skin and remove any brown bits. Cut through the middle into quarters and then cut each quarter into 5-7mm slices.

GRILL PINEAPPLE

5

Grill pineapple in a little oil for 2-3 minutes each side until charred. Remove to a bowl.

COOK THE BACON

6

Pan-fry until crispy, pat excess oil onto some paper towel and dice into chunky cubes or strips. Set aside.

PREPARE VEGETABLES

7

Prepare the fresh salad ingredients: lettuce, cherry tomatoes, peppers, onions and avocado. Peel and cut the eggs into quarters or halves.

MIX THE DRESSING

8

 Whisk all chipotle ranch dressing ingredients in a bowl and set aside.

TIP: This dressing can be made ahead of time. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days for best freshness.

ASSEMBLE THE SALAD

Start with lettuce base followed by grilled chicken in four portions and red peppers.

Place all other ingredients in small piles around the chicken portions: pineapple, bacon, diced avocado, eggs, cherry tomatoes and sliced red onion.

Drizzle some of the dressing over the top and serve the rest on the side.
