  • Cook the chicken properly: The chicken should be cooked through but still tender and juicy. Grilled or pan-seared chicken will have the best flavor.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The vegetables in your salad should be crisp and colorful. Choose a variety of vegetables that you like, such as romaine lettuce, red cabbage, carrots, bell peppers, and cucumbers.
