Peppercorn Ranch Bbq Chicken Salad Recipes

CHEF'S SALAD WITH GRILLED CHICKEN AND BLACK PEPPER RANCH

I thoroughly enjoyed eating this salad for dinner, but my favorite bites were the chunks of sharp Cheddar, lettuce, dressing, cucumber, and chicken. This is a classic ranch dressing ratio, so it hits your taste buds the way it should. The black pepper is not oppressive as it's balanced out by the tangy buttermilk and creamy mayo. Can't go wrong with this!

Chef's Salad with Grilled Chicken and Black Pepper Ranch image

Steps:

Preheat a gas grill to medium heat (400 to 450 degrees F, or 200 to 230 degrees C) or a grill pan over medium-high heat; oil the grates. Pat chicken dry and sprinkle evenly with 3/4 teaspoon salt.
Place chicken on the preheated grill and cook, turning occasionally, until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes before chopping.
While chicken rests, stir together buttermilk, mayonnaise, sour cream, chives, parsley, dill, black pepper, garlic, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a medium bowl.
Toss butter lettuce and iceberg in a large bowl or platter. Arrange chicken, cucumber, cheese, tomatoes, avocado, and eggs over lettuce. Drizzle 1/2 of the dressing. Serve with remaining dressing on the side.

BUTTERMILK PEPPERCORN RANCH SALAD DRESSING

Simple and delicious. Came up with this recipe when trying to duplicate a local pizza restaurant's peppercorn ranch dressing that we love. This dressing goes great with Romaine lettuce, sliced cherry tomatoes, and red onion with fresh bacon crumbled on top. Refrigerate overnight for best taste.

POPCORN CHICKEN SALAD

Here's a refreshing salad that's great for lunches at work from Teresa Wilkins-Reckard in Monroe, Indiana. "I can mix up the dressing at home, then pick up enough salad ingredients at the store to last for several days," she notes. "My family and friends like it, too. And variations are easy to make." -
