Grilled Chicken Salad with Green Goddess Dressing

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup fat-free sour cream
  • 1/4 cup fat-free mayonnaise
  • 1 bunch fresh chives, chopped
  • 2 tbsp. coarsely chopped fresh tarragon
  • 1 tbsp. white vinegar
  • 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 (1/4 lb.) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 (16 oz.) bag iceberg salad mix
Makes 4 Servings (1 chicken breast half with 1/2 tablespoon dressing and about 1 3/4 cups per serving)
  1. Puree the sour cream, mayonnaise, chives, tarragon, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce in a blender.
  2. Spray a grill rack with extra-virgin nonstick spray; prepare the grill for a medium-hot fire. Lightly spray the chicken with nonstick spray; sprinkle with the salt and pepper.
  3. Place the chicken on the grill rack and grill until cooked through, about 6 minutes on each side. Transfer to a cutting board.
  4. Transfer 2 tablespoons of the dressing to a small bowl; set aside. Combine the salad mix and the remaining dressing in a large bowl; mix well. Divide the salad among 4 plates. Cut each chicken breast  on the diagonal into 1/4-inch-thick slices; arrange 1 breast half on top of each salad. Drizzle the chicken evenly with the reserved 2 tablespoons dressing.
WW POINTS VALUE: 4 pts.

Note: This recipe appears in the WW Ultimate Chicken Cookbook. This quick and easy salad is tasty and delicious. The grilled chicken is succulent and juicy and it goes great in this salad. You can also add sliced tomatoes, carrots and celery to this salad to make it more filling. If you don't have tarragon leaves on hand, substitute 1/4 cup of sliced fresh basil leaves and the salad will be just as tasty, Also season the chicken with salt, pepper and minced garlic to make the chicken more flavorful.
