Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3.5 tablespoons tandoori paste
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground oregano
  • 1 dash balsamic vinegar
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 0.5 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons hot pepper sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 4 cups chopped lettuce
  • 2 medium ripe tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup thinly sliced carrots
  • 0.75 cup sliced radishes
  • 0.5 cup chopped green bell pepper

Steps

  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  2. Make the chicken: Combine olive oil, tandoori paste, chili powder, hot sauce, lemon juice, coriander, oregano, and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl. Brush sauce all over chicken until coated; discard any remaining sauce.
  3. Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the grill and slice.
  4. While the chicken is cooking, make the dressing: Mix lemon juice, vinegar, hot sauce, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
  5. Make the salad: Combine lettuce, tomatoes, onion, carrots, radishes, carrots, and bell pepper in a large bowl.
  6. Remove chicken from the grill. Slice chicken and add to salad. Pour dressing over salad and toss gently to coat.
