It's one of my favorite chicken salad recipes.  This recipe is also clean, gluten-free and dairy-free. It's quick to throw together. I especially love how the asparagus tastes in it and you just may become a believer in artichoke hearts after this! I totally invented it myself and I love it - hopefully, you will too.It's a great example of a main dish salad that will fill you up and help you lose weight. I love meals I can make one thing and not have to have a whole bunch of sides. This is also great because you can make it for one person or ten. The kick from the garlic, the crisp asparagus, and the yummy dressing make it one of my favorites!  Plus it has no carbs, gluten, dairy or sugar.I'm not going to lie to you though, it's kind of an adult salad. Well, at least none of my children like it. But it's quick and easy for me to throw together when I want something healthy that tastes good and then I can make something for the children that they like and I would rather not eat. I often cook the asparagus in the oven, because I love the roasted flavor it gets in the oven, but this method of cooking it in the same pan saves time and is good too.One thing I didn't mention in this healthy artichoke asparagus chicken salad recipe, is that if you have time, I prefer to put my chicken in the fridge for a half-hour or so and let it cool down all the way because if you put hot chicken on the greens and then put the dressing over it, it turns in to a wilted, soggy mess.Plus, while it's cooling down in the fridge, I can serve my children their dinner or just have time to clean up or help with homework without worrying about it burning. I used to make this a lot when I had really young children and didn't get to eat dinner until later. I would get it all made and just have it waiting in the fridge for me when I had a free minute to actually eat, which often wasn't until the kids were in bed. Thank goodness I don't have to do that anymore. But you do what you have to when you are nursing and have other young children that don't understand that Mommy needs some peace and quiet to eat for a minute.I also want to add, don't skimp on the fresh garlic. It's so good and helps give it a bite. Garlic powder will not work in this salad. Plus, it is SO healthy for you to eat fresh garlic. I always feel really good after I eat this salad with fresh garlic in it.Please let me know if you like this healthy artichoke asparagus chicken salad recipe and if you have any tips for me or my readers!PrintRecipeclock clock iconcutlery cutlery iconflag flag iconfolder folder iconinstagram instagram iconpinterest pinterest iconfacebook facebook iconprint print iconsquares squares iconheart heart iconheart solid heart solid icon\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHealthy asparagus chicken artichoke salad Recipe\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t5 Stars\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t4 Stars\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t3 Stars\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2 Stars\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t1 Star\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t4.5 from 4 reviews\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tAuthor: Rebecca Baron\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPrep Time: 30 minutes\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCook Time: 15 minutes\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTotal Time: 45 minutes\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tYield: 4 1x\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCategory: Main Course\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tCuisine: Paleo\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tDescription\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWe absolutely love this salad!
