It adds that perfect tangy contrast to the sweet balsamic glaze.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For a lighter option, swap the bacon for grilled shrimp or omit it entirely \u2014 the Balsamic Chicken Salad will still taste amazing and stay low carb.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-recipe-faq-s\">Recipe FAQ&#8217;s<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe-card\" class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1733457286629\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I Use Chicken Breast Instead Of Thighs?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes!
