Chef's Salad with Grilled Chicken and Black Pepper Ranch
I thoroughly enjoyed eating this salad for dinner, but my favorite bites were the chunks of sharp Cheddar, lettuce, dressing, cucumber, and chicken. This is a classic ranch dressing ratio, so it hits your taste buds the way it should. The black pepper is not oppressive as it's balanced out by the tangy buttermilk and creamy mayo. Can't go wrong with this!
