Method
 

Grilled Chicken (Optional)
  1. If including, combine all of the marinade ingredients and mix together. Then, cover each piece of chicken in the marinade. If you'd like, allow the chicken to marinate covered in the fridge overnight, but at least for 30 minutes.
  2. Once ready to cook, I like to grill mine on a cast iron grill pan until the internal temperature is 165℉.

Strawberry Salad with Sticky Date Granola
  1. The great thing about this recipe is it is super easy to customize. Use desired amounts of salad fixings and also feel free to alter them as needed. My only note is to assemble right before eating! Also, if you plan to meal prep this salad, store the different salad fixings separately then combine before enjoying.
