Description

A vibrant and nutritious salad featuring tender grilled teriyaki chicken, sweet pineapple, creamy avocado, and crisp romaine, tossed with a zesty teriyaki vinaigrette.


Ingredients

Scale

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/4 cup soy sauce (halal-certified, alcohol-free)
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon ginger, grated
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
3 cups romaine lettuce
1 cup pineapple chunks
1 avocado, sliced
1 cup mixed greens
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce (halal, alcohol-free)
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)


Instructions

Marinate chicken breasts with soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic for 30 minutes
Preheat grill to medium-high heat; cook chicken 6–7 minutes per side until charred and cooked through
In a bowl, combine romaine, pineapple, avocado, mixed greens, and sesame seeds
Whisk olive oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili flakes to make the vinaigrette

Notes

Substitute chicken with firm tofu for a vegetarian option
Marinate chicken longer (up to 2 hours) for deeper flavor
Grill pineapple chunks for extra smokiness if desired
