If using chicken breasts, pat dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Cook until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes per side. Add to salad as desired.
-
If using mahi-mahi, pat dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add mahi-mahi to hot pan. Cook until mahi-mahi reaches desired doneness (medium-rare to well-done), 2-4 minutes per side for medium. Consuming raw or undercooked mahi-mahi may increase your risk for food-borne illness. Add to salad as desired.

1 Make the Salad
Thoroughly rinse any fresh produce and pat dry. Trim cucumber and thinly slice into rounds. Halve tomatoes. Combine balsamic vinaigrette and strawberry preserves in a mixing bowl. Toss or gently combine spring mix and tomatoes with vinaigrette. Top with cucumbers, goat cheese (crumbling with your hands, if needed), and walnuts. Bon appétit!
