Dressing:

- 1/4 cup Grey Poupon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon prepared mustard
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1/8 teaspoon paprika
Chicken Marinade:
- 1 cup water
- 3 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire
Cajun Spice Blend:
- 1/2 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
- 2 tablespoons light butter
Salad:
- 8 cups chopped iceberg lettuce
- 1/2 cup shredded red cabbage
- 1/2 cup shredded carrot
- 1/2 cup fat free shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup fat free shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 large tomato, diced
- 1 hardboiled egg white, diced
- Make dressing by combining ingredients in a small bowl. Mix well by hand.
- Store in a covered container in the refrigerator until salad is ready.
- Combine water, lime juice, soy sauce, and Worcestershire in a medium bowl, and stir.
- Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, cover bowl and keep in refrigerator for several hours. Overnight is even better.
- When chicken is marinated, preheat a frying pan or skillet (an iron skillet, if you've got it) over medium/high heat. Also, preheat your barbecue grill to medium/high heat.
- Combine the spices for the Cajun spice blend in a small bowl.
- Sprinkle a teaspoon of the spice blend over one side of each of the chicken breasts. Covering the entire surface of the chicken with spice.
- Melt the butter in the hot pan, then sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes on the side with the spices.
- While first side cooks, sprinkle another teaspoon of spice over the top of each chicken breast, coating that side as you did the other.
- Flip the chicken over, and sear for another 2-3 minutes.
- The surface of the chicken will be coated with a charred, black layer of flavor.
- This is exactly what you are shooting for.
- Finish the chicken off on your barbecue grill. Grill each breast on both sides for 2-3 minutes, or until they are done.
- While chicken is cooking prepare the salads by splitting the lettuce into two large bowls.
- Toss in the red cabbage and carrots.
- Mix the cheeses together, then top the salad with the cheeses and hardboiled egg.
- Sprinkle the diced tomato on each salad.
- Slice the chicken breast, across each breast in 1/2-inch-thick slices.
- Spread the chicken over the top of the salad and serve immediately with dressing on the side.
Serves 2 as an entree.
