Cook Time 10 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients
 

  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
  • 2/3 cup canola or olive oil
  • 1 to 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 to 3 cups sliced strawberries
  • 1 bag (6 to 8 ounces) baby spinach
  • 2 boneless chicken breasts - grilled and sliced into strips

Instructions
 

  • In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, shake together first 5 ingredients until dressing thickens a bit and coats the jar.
  • Place spinach in a big bowl.
  • Add strawberries and chicken.
  • Drizzle a little of the dressing on top.
  • Use tongs to gently toss to coat.

Notes

A little of this balsamic vinaigrette goes a long way. Extra dressing keeps in the fridge for a week. You can brush a little of the vinaigrette on the chicken while grilling or marinate the chicken in a few tablespoons of the vinaigrette in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. You can also add toasted almonds or pecans to this salad for a little crunch. It’s also great with crumbled goat or bleu cheese on top! Great way to use up leftover grilled chicken too!
