Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chicken
Marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat
Grill the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes per side or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center
Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes before slicing
In a large salad bowl, combine the mixed salad greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and red onion slices
Top the salad with the sliced grilled chicken
