Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the proteins by grilling chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F. Cook bacon in a skillet until crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Hard-boil eggs by boiling for 10-12 minutes, then cool in an ice bath.
- Wash and slice zucchini into half-inch rounds. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill zucchini and corn cob alongside chicken for about 5-7 minutes or pan-fry zucchini until tender.
- Chop romaine lettuce and place in a large bowl. Dice the grilled chicken, crispy bacon, and hard-boiled eggs. Halve cherry tomatoes and mix with diced zucchini and blueberries.
- Combine blueberries, balsamic vinegar, fresh squeezed lemon juice, olive oil, and honey in a food processor. Blend until smooth, about 30 seconds. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Assemble the salad by layering chopped romaine lettuce, drizzling half the dressing over the greens, and arranging the proteins and vegetables on top. Finish with cheese and remaining dressing.
- Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
