Grilled Chicken and Fruit Salad with Bloody Mary Dressing

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe.

Servings: Serves 3 – 4 with one package of tenders

Ingredients:

For EACH SERVING

  • 6-8 oz of chicken tenders (this is usually 3)
  • unlimited lettuce
  • 1 cup of veggies. My combo consisted of:
  • cooked green beans
  • cucumber chunks
  • celery chunks
  • 1/3 of an apple, sliced (leave peel on)
  • 8 mandarin orange segments (or 3 regular orange segments)
  • 2 strawberries

Instructions:

Grill the chicken tenders until no pink remains in the chicken. I do this with my grill pan so I can make this salad no matter what the weather. If you sear the outside of the tenders and then turn them to a lower temperature to finish cooking they will remain juicier.

While the chicken is cooking arrange your salad so it looks pretty on the plate.

Put on your chicken tenders. I poured 3 Tbl of Bloody Mary dressing on mine and loved it.

You will still have a small allotment of fruit left over so you can have a few berries for your dessert. Just don’t go over your total allotment.

 

Bloody Mary Dressing:

This dressing is really good. If you like Russian dressing you might consider this Russian dressing’s cousin. Just whiz it up and pour it on.

Ingredients:

  • 3 Tbl is one serving (or less if you don’t need that much)
  • 4 Tbl of Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup of chopped canned tomatoes
  • 1 tsp of celery salt
  • 1/3 cup of vinegar. I used balsamic but you can use your favorite. Apple cider would make the dressing a bit sweeter or red vinegar will work too.
  • ¼ tsp of nutmeg, ground
  • 1/3 cup of chopped onion
  • 1 tsp of Truvia
  • 1/3 cup of water

Instructions:

Put this all in a blender and whiz until smooth.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
