Creating your BBQ Chicken Skewer Salad is straightforward and fun if you follow these steps:

1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine chicken breasts and barbecue sauce. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
2. Prepare Skewers: If you’re using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15-20 minutes to prevent burning. Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
3. Assemble Skewers: Thread marinated chicken onto skewers. You can also add diced vegetables in between the chicken pieces for extra flavor.
4. Grill the Skewers: Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
5. Prepare the Salad Base: In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, bell pepper, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber.
6. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper.
7. Combine Salad and Dressing: Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to combine.
8. Serve the Skewers: Remove the chicken skewers from the grill and allow them to rest for a few minutes.
9. Plate the Salad: Place the dressed salad on plates and top with grilled chicken skewers. Sprinkle with feta cheese if desired.

With these steps, your BBQ Chicken Skewer Salad will be ready to impress!
