Step 7. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 7–8 minutes for jammy centers or 9–10 minutes for firmer yolks.

Step 8. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath, cool completely, peel, and cut in half.

Step 13. Divide the mixed greens among serving bowls.

Step 14. Arrange the sliced chicken, eggs, peas, carrots, cauliflower, snap peas, and red onion over the greens.

Step 15. Drizzle with the dressing or serve it on the side.

Step 16. Serve immediately or refrigerate for meal prep.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Store the chicken, eggs, and vegetables in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Keep the dressing separate until ready to serve to maintain freshness.

For meal prep, assemble the bowls without dressing and add it just before eating.

The chicken can be reheated gently in the microwave or enjoyed cold.

Hard-boiled eggs are best consumed within 1 week when stored in the refrigerator.
