Instructions
Butterfly the chicken breasts. Mix the marinade ingredients in a small bowl, and pour over top the chicken. Let marinate for several hours, if possible.
Clean and chop the veggies. Cook the eggs and bacon, and let cool.
Mix up the dressing by combining all ingredients. Store in a mason jar and keep chilled until serving.
Light an outdoor grill to medium heat. Place the chicken on the grill and add seasoned salt (if desired). Cook until done - a digital thermometer should read 165 degrees. Remove the chicken and let rest for at least 10 minutes. Slice.
To serve, add the ingredients to four individual salad bowls - the lettuce, tomatoes, onions, eggs, bacon, cheese, and sliced avocado. Top with the dressing, and enjoy.
