An easy Grilled Chicken Cobb Salad recipe that is packed with protein, fresh veggies, and a homemade ranch dressing!
Ingredients
Herby Ranch Dressing:
- ½ cup mayo
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon dried parsley leaves
- 1 tablespoon milk buttermilk, unsweetened almond milk, reg. milk, more to thin
- 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
- 1 ½ teaspoons dried dill weed
- 1 ½ teaspoons dried chives
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
Ultimate Cobb Salad:
- 2 cups romaine lettuce chopped
- ¼ cup red onion thinly sliced
- ½ cup cooked bacon chopped
- 2 roma tomatoes quartered
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- ⅔ cup blue cheese crumbled
- 1 avocado diced
- 2 hard boiled eggs quartered
Instructions
- Herby Ranch Dressing: Add ingredients to a small blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust any flavors and add any salt or pepper, as desired.
- Grill Chicken Breasts: Preheat grill to 400 °F. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Place chicken directly on the grill grates and let cook over direct heat for 4-5 minutes per side. Move chicken to indirect heat and let cook for another 5-7 minutes or until the internal temp reaches 160 °F. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.
- Prep Ingredients: Make sure your bacon is cooked, eggs are hard-boiled and veggies are chopped.
- Build Salads: Divide lettuce, onion, bacon, tomato, chicken, blue cheese, avocado and hard boiled eggs between two large bowls. Top with as much Herby Ranch Dressing as you want!
Notes
- Chicken: Feel free to use whatever you prefer here - we used some grilled chicken breasts, but rotisserie chicken would be a great option too!
- Nutrition: The nutritional information does not include the herby ranch dressing as everyone uses slightly different amounts on their salad.
