Rosemary Chicken Salad Recipe
The scrumptious ingredients in this salad combine to create the most satisfying salad! Here’s how I make it.
How to Make Rosemary Chicken Salad
It all starts with my baked chicken. I’ve shared that recipe previously with you all, but for this salad, I top it with chopped fresh rosemary leaves for baking. I love to bake a pan of this chicken early in the week to then have on hand for recipes like this so that they are even quicker and easier to pull together for a meal in a flash!
I love to include all sorts of fresh vegetables in this salad for the flavors and textures – from halved grape tomatoes to cucumbers, radishes sliced really thinly and sliced green onions.
I also include diced crispy bacon pieces, hunk of avocado, and creamy gorgonzola cheese.
The flavor combinations are just delicious together.
Then, I top it with my Rosemary Ranch Dressing recipe that I shared with you just the other day.
So good!
