Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded or cubed chicken, mixed salad greens, sliced strawberries, mandarin oranges, blueberries, and sliced cucumber.

In a small dry skillet over medium heat, toast the almonds until they are golden brown and fragrant, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Remove from heat and let them cool slightly.

Step 3

Sprinkle the toasted almonds and crumbled feta cheese over the salad mixture in the bowl.

Step 4

In a small jar or bowl, whisk together the honey, fresh lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.

Step 5

Drizzle the honey-lime dressing evenly over the salad ingredients in the bowl.

Step 6

Gently toss the salad to combine all the ingredients and evenly distribute the dressing.

Step 7

Serve immediately in individual plates or bowls. Enjoy your refreshing Fruity Chicken Tossed Salad!
