"My basil seems to go crazy this time of year and I have an overabundance! This helps use it by using it as part of a salad. Prep time does not include the time to get the grill up to temperature."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (about 450º). Brush the chicken with 1 tablespoon of oil; sprinkle evenly with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.

Step 2

Place the chicken on a grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill, uncovered, about 5-6 minutes per side, until it reaches a temperature of 160º. Let stand 5 minutes and cut into slices.

Step 3

Whisk together the remaining 3 tablespoons oil, vinegar, honey, mustard, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl.

Step 4

Add the arugula, basil, and onion. Toss gently to coat.

Step 5

Divide the salad evenly among 4 salad plates. Top evenly with the chicken slices, blackberries, and cheese. Enjoy.
