S
o it is summer and here in Arizona the heat is on!  During this time of year the last thing i want to be doing is slaving over a hot stove.  I like to be with my friends around the pool, and having fun.  So here is an easy way to prepare dinner that's done is a flash without all the heat.  For this dish I like to buy pre-cooked chicken tenders and just bulk chop them for the salad.  These dishes can be made ahead of time and pulled out at the right moment for a get together and they are sure to be a hit!! 

Greek Grilled Chicken Salad with Grand Marnier Strawberries. 

Greek Grilled Chicken Salad 

1 (12 ounce) package romaine lettuce, chopped.

2 (6 ounce) packages refrigerated grilled chicken breast streips, coarsely chopped.

2 cups grape tomatoes, halved.

1 small chopped seeded cucumber.

1/2 cup feta cheese ( i like to used reduced fat)

2 tablespoons sliced ripe olives.

1/3 cup thinly sliced red onion.

1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper (or more if you like).

1/3 cup olive oil vinaigrette.juice of

1/2 lemon. 

Combine first 8 ingredients, toss gently.  Combine vinaigrette and lemon juice in a small bowl; stir with a whisk.  Pour dressing over lettuce mixture.  Serve.Quick Play by Nae~Nae:  To seed a cucumber quickly, cut it in half lengthwise and using the tip of a spoon or a melon baller, scoop out the seeds. 

Grand Marnier Strawberries 

1 quart strawberries, sliced.

1/4 cup Grand Marnier (orange-flavored liquer).

2 teaspoons grated orange rind.

Whipped cream  

Combine first 3 ingredients.  toss gently.  serve with whipped cream.  For an elegant effect, I like to serve this in frosted martini glasses.  Oh so posh!!! 

Enjoy!
