Now, when we really get into those lazy, hazy days of July and August, the supporting cast for this recipe will look like this…
…but while we are still in the merry month of May, you should stick with cherry tomatoes, which are sweet and perfect, and wait on the big tomatoes until you can get them right in season. I used both red and yellow cherry tomatoes, and they were just the right amount of festive.
Now open up that grill, brush a couple of chicken breasts with a little bit of olive oil, sprinkle on some salt and pepper, and grill ‘em up. Let them chill in your fridge until they are cold (and actually, room temperature works perfectly well too) and then tear them into bite sized pieces.
Now you’re going to chop up your veggies…the same tomato, cuke, red onion and pepper that you will find in gazpacho…and toss them in with the chicken. Now all that’s left to do is mix up a quick dressing of fresh lime juice, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper, pour it over your chicken mixture, and give it all a good toss with a little fresh chopped parsley.
Welcome to summer.

I definitely find that I have a “thing” each summer also. Last summer was my summer of corn. the year before that was zucchini. This year it looks like its going to be kale and swiss chard and all number of leafy greens…but we’ll see. Love this gazpacho salad! I’m not really a huge fan of cold soups so having it in salad form is ideal!
I’ll be watching your beautiful blog for those leafy green recipes!
How did you know that I’d just been obsessing over gazpacho. I didn’t get around to making any last summer, and the craving has been coming on. I like my gazpacho chunky, too. Another good one!
Gazpacho in any form means summertime to me – can’t get enough!
We are slowly sliding into winter here but the chicken salad looks too good to have just in summer. I love gazpacho, I know I will love this salad.

It’s definitely a year-rounder!
Besitos right back.
I live alone, but love to cook, so I’ve taken to bringing food to share with friends at work. I made this the other day, and it was a real hit! Healthy and tasty and different.
I love your website!
I’m so glad to hear! This is one of my summer favorites.
