How to Make Hot Honey Chicken Salad ⏲️

collage of steps for making hot honey chicken salad
  • STEP 1: Cook Chicken Breasts

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F

Place Chicken Breast in a plastic resealable bag with Salt, Pepper, Smoked paprika, and olive Oil. Seal the top. Shake well. Transfer to an oven safe dish.

Bake for 20-minutes, flipping at 10-minute mark (optional).

HINT: I like to cover the baking dish with an aluminium foil since it prevents the chicken breasts from going dry.

  • STEP 2: Make Honey Garlic Dressing

In a glass Mason Jar combine honey, hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, extra virgin olive oil and low sodium soy sauce. Close the lid. Shake vigorously. Keep aside.

  • STEP 3: Prepare the Veggies

Thoroughly wash and chop lettuce along with bell peppers, cucumbers, and red onions. Transfer to a salad bowl.

  • STEP 4: Pour the dressing and mix well

Cut the chicken breast lengthwise or in cubes (as per your choice). Place it on the veggies. Pour the dressing. Toss well. Serve.

How to Make Honey Sesame Chicken Salad 👩‍🍳

This is one of the best ways to serve this salad. Once you've assembled everything in the salad bowl, just top with white sesame seeds. And you have the best ever Honey Sesame Chicken Salad.

Variations for Chicken Salad with Honey 🍴

  • Honey Mustard Dressing - Replace the Hot Honey Dressing with my homemade Honey Mustard dressing and make the best chicken salad recipe with honey mustard.
  • Maple Syrup - Instead of Honey you can use Maple Syrup to make the dressing.
  • Choice of veggies - With Salads, play around with your fantasies. Use as many veggies as you want. Suggestions - Zucchini, Butternut Squash, cherry tomatoes, Avocados, etcetra.
  • Corn - Packaged sweet corn could be a good addition to this Hot Honey Chicken Salad.

Meal Prep🍱

If you are on a diet and are thinking about making this Chicken Salad recipe ahead of time, then we are on the same page.

This is how I do it:

  • Double or triple the salad if you need to serve more people.
  • Chop the veggies and cook the chicken.
  • Chop the chicken and place it over veggies.
  • Wrap it with a plastic wrap. Double wrap with an aluminium foil.
  • This chicken hot honey salad will stay fresh in the fridge for three to four days.

Serving Suggestions 🤩

  • Wraps 🌯- Instead of chopping the lettuce you can make the salad with other ingredients and serve it in the form of lettuce wraps. Check out Quinoa Lettuce Wraps or Salmon Lettuce Wraps or Grilled Buffalo Chicken Wraps for more inspo.
  • Sandwich 🥪- You can serve it between breads or a hoagie roll in the form of a sandwich.🌭
