  3. Step Three: While the vinaigrette is resting and chicken is baking, chop and prep the rest of your ingredients. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy on both sides.
  4. Step Four: To assemble the salad, place a bed of lettuce and microgreens in each bowl, add the chives, strawberries, avocado, eggs, and bacon on top. Once rested, add the sliced chicken to the salad. Whisk the vinaigrette one last time before adding to the salad.
