Grilled chicken and apple salad

Steve wanted a grilled chicken Caesar tonight but since I'm back on the WW wagon I made a different salad for myself.

For 1 serving (11pts)

8oz boneless skinless chicken breast (5pts)
2tsp olive oil (2pts)
chopped romaine lettuce
1 small gala apple, cored and chopped (1pt)
3TBS Trader Joes balsamic vinaigrette dressing (3pts)

Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Sprinkle liberally with salt, pepper, and the olive oil; rub in to thoroughly coat. Grill on the BBQ at medium for about 10 min or until done, turning once. Toss lettuce with dressing, place on plate. Slice chicken in to thin strips or chunks and place on salad, sprinkle apple pieces on top. Enjoy!

This salad is very filling, and has a whole day's worth of protein. It would also be good with spinach, or mixed greens. You could certainly reduce the amount of chicken if you want, which would reduce the points.
