Since we have an abundance of lettuce in the garden I thought salads would be a good choice. So while the boys took a short nap............................
.........I prepared the salads using ingredients I had on hand. The end results were quite delicious and refreshing.
Summer Chicken Salad
1 pkg chicken breast tenderloins
1 tbsp olive oil
Greek seasoning
rosemary
thyme
fresh ground pepper
salt
fresh squeezed lime juice
lettuce
Mandarin oranges, drained
toasted English walnuts
shredded cheddar cheese
fresh grated Parmesan cheese
Heat the oil in a skillet until hot. Cut the chicken into small strips. Add to the hot oil and season to suit your taste with the Greek seasoning, rosemary, thyme, pepper, salt & lime juice. Fry until golden brown. {I would have liked to grill the chicken but I didn't have the time.} Cut up the lettuce and add chicken, oranges and walnuts. Drizzle with Balsamic Celery Seed Dressing and top with grated cheese.
Balsamic Celery Seed Dressing
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup sugar
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/4 small onion
3/4 tsp mustard
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp celery seed
Blend together until smooth.
