Instructions

Prepare the dressing by whisking together the honey, dijon mustard, lemon juice, and avocado oil in a bowl, or use an immersion blender for a smoother texture. Set it aside or refrigerate for later use.
Season the chicken with sea salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in a small bowl. Preheat the grill to medium/medium-high heat and brush with avocado oil.
Grill the chicken for about 5 minutes on each side or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove from the grill and set aside on a cutting board.
In a large serving bowl, layer the chopped greens, cherry tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, avocado, crumbled bacon, and sliced hard-boiled eggs.
Slice the grilled chicken and layer it into the salad as desired. Drizzle the dressing over the salad, toss gently, and serve immediately.

Notes

For a creamier dressing, blend longer with an immersion blender.
You can use any salad greens of your choice for this recipe.
