Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

- 4 cups mixed greens
- 0.5 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 0.25 cup sliced almonds, toasted

Instructions
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Brush the chicken breasts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season both sides with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Grill the chicken breasts for 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

In a small bowl, whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, lemon juice, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.
Drizzle the balsamic dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine.
Slice the grilled chicken breasts and serve them on top of the strawberry salad.
Serve immediately and enjoy this refreshing and healthy dish!
