  • Add sliced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced avocado, and thinly sliced red onion.
  • Arrange the grilled chicken slices on top of the salad.

4. Dress Salad:-

  • Prepare the lemon vinaigrette by mixing AEVO Avocado Oil with freshly squeezed lemonjuice, a bit of Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to taste.
  • Drizzle the lemon vinaigrette over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.

5. Serve:-
