I'd like to make a starter: salad with grilled chicken slices on top and drizzled with dressing. Anyone have a good dressing recipe?

u can use italian dressing if u want to be quick. I have a garlic dressing u can try, I like it with deli salad or even regular salad too.

Creamy Garlic Dressing-from the What's Cooking cookbook

1/2 c mayo
2 T vinegar
2 T water
2 T sugar
1 frozen garlic cube
1/4 tsp salt
few dashes pepper

mix until smooth and creamy.

(u can add more garlic if u like it more garlicy or some garlic powder)

Appelbees blackened chicken salad for the chicken and dressing, but for the salad I use red cabbage, romaine lettuce and cherry tomatoes.

I'm not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, but I have a really great recipe. I've made it so many times & it always comes out incredible. I originally got the recipe from the cookbook Simple Pleasures.

Grilled Chicken Breast Salad

Marinate chicken breasts:
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup soy sauce
4 T. brown sugar
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/4 cup ketchup

Cut each chicken cutlet into 3 or 4 strips. Combine above ingredients & pour over chicken cutlets. Refrigerate several hours or overnight, if you have the time. Grill or bake chicken breasts (I always bake them, covered with aluminum foil, at 350 degrees for about 1/2 hour-40 minutes. I bake them in the marinade.) When the chicken is cool, cut into strips.

Salad Dressing:
1/2 cup low fat mayo
1 tsp. garlic powder
few shakes black pepper
3-4 T. water

Salad:
romaine lettuce
craisins
grape tomatoes

Mix salad with dressing and top with the chicken.
