This Roast Chicken Cobb Salad comes together in 30 minutes for a delicious chicken cobb salad everyone loves. So easy and so delicious!

Roast Chicken Cobb Salad from addapinch.com

Lately, we’ve been loving these easy roast chicken cobb salads for lunch on Sunday afternoons after church. They come together so quickly and I love that everyone can pile on their favorite ingredients for their own version of a perfect cobb salad!

To make everything super simple and to cook more quickly, I start by cutting my boneless skinless chicken breast into strips. Then, I cook it on a rimmed baking sheet in the oven along withย my bacon.ย My bacon is ready in about 12-15 minutes. When I remove it from the pan, I turn my chicken strips and cook them another 10 minutes or so. While my chicken finishes off in the oven, that gives me time to finish assembling all of the other ingredients for my cobb salad – dicing the bacon, quarteringย the hard boiled eggs and slicing the tomatoes and avocadoes.

In less than 30 minutes, we have this delicious roast chicken cobb salad that we absolutely love.

For this salad, I also recommend a bit of blue cheese or even chunks of cheddar, if you prefer.

Here’s my Roast Chicken Cobb Salad Recipe. I hope you love it as much as we do!

    i am so glad I happened onto your site. I cook often. Need fresh recipes. I have viewed several of your cake recipes and can’t wait to try them. I despise box cakes! I make chicken salad at least once a week in the summer and will incorporate your recipes with mine. Keep sending great new recipes.
