Instructions

Mix all the salad dressing ingredients to a bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.

Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper. Grill chicken using an outdoor grill until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 F

To cook the chicken indoors, heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the chicken breast on the skillet and cook until both sides are nicely golden brown. about 3 minutes on each side.

Once done, remove from the heat, and allow it to rest for 10 minutes, then cut into cubes.

Next, prepare the veggies, rinse and spin the arugula until thoroughly dried, or shake to remove the excess water and pat dry with paper towels.

Chop the onion, cut the tomatoes in half and slice the cucumber.

Peel the mango. Using a sharp knife carefully cut the mango around the pit. Dice the mango halves and set aside.

Cut the avocado in half and remove the pit. Using a tablespoon scoop out the flesh from the avocados and dice them.

Place all the veggies and chicken cubes into a large salad bowl. Pour the poppy seed dressing on top.

Toss well until all the ingredients are coated into the dressing.Enjoy!
