To make this dish, you'll need the following ingredients:
- For the salad:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 head of romaine lettuce, chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup croutons
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- For the guacamole:
- 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and pepper, to taste
To start, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then place them on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until cooked through. Let the chicken cool for a few minutes, then slice it into thin strips.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the guacamole. In a medium bowl, mash the avocados with a fork until they are mostly smooth but still slightly chunky. Add the red onion, cilantro, jalapeno, garlic, lime juice, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine.
To assemble the salad, divide the chopped lettuce among four plates. Top each plate with sliced chicken, cherry tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, and croutons. Spoon a generous dollop of guacamole on top of each salad, and serve immediately.
