Directions
Salad - wash remaine and drain well. In a large salad bowl add all remaining ingredients except chicken and gently toss. Drizzle dressing over salad, toss and portion on plates, top with grilled chicken strips. Garnish with croutons and a slice of yellow and red apple.

Dressing - combine all ingredients in a small sauce pan and heat just until sugar is dissolved. Pour into a container with a tight fitting lid and shake to blend seasonings. Allow to cool completely before drizzling over salads.
