This was good! The vinegar is too much for the salad. But it makes a WONDERFUL marinade for the chicken. I took this recipe and made my own version. We now eat the salad but with different Italian dressing, the chicken, in the marinade, with tortellini with a little italian dressing on it to spice it up. Now that's a big hit!

I just got done eating this wonderful dish! I like to eat my meat/chicken outside of my salad. So I just ate it on the side. The maranade is so good, that I would like to use it on chicken then with a pasta dish and the greens on the side, next time. But every yummy!

This was a very easy and quick recipe and one that I will make again and again - especially in the summer. It might be a little vinegary for some (like my husband) but I loved the tart and spicy vinegarette on the greens. I used a spicy Italian dry dressing mix which added to the overall punch. The marinade also kept the chicken breasts moist when grilling. This is definitely going in my family cookbook.
