Ingredients
  

For the Grilled Chicken
  • 2 boneless chicken breasts cubed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Salad Bowl
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cucumber sliced
  • 1 tomato sliced
  • 1 cup cooked beetroot sliced
  • Fresh lettuce leaves
  • Optional: lemon juice or light vinaigrette

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes. Toss with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until well coated. Let sit for a few minutes while your grill heats.
  2. Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates. Cook chicken cubes in batches for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on all sides and cooked through (165 degrees Fahrenheit internal temperature). Set aside.
  3. Rinse broccoli florets and lightly steam for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. Slice cucumber into rounds and tomato into wedges. Use cooked or canned beetroot, drained and sliced. All vegetables can be prepared ahead for meal prep.
  4. Start with a bed of fresh lettuce leaves. Arrange vegetables in sections like a color wheel: broccoli, cucumber, tomato, and beetroot slices. Mound grilled chicken cubes in the center.
  5. Drizzle with fresh lemon juice or light vinaigrette just before eating. Serve immediately to keep vegetables crisp and enjoy every colorful bite.
