Step 1

In a small bowl whisk together hot sauce, garlic powder, celery salt, smoked paprika, pepper, and olive oil. (DO NOT ADD HONEY YET). Remove 1/4 cup of sauce to marinate chicken in. Place chicken in a ziplock bag or large shallow bowl, add 1/4 cup marinade, and toss evenly to coat. Cover and refrigerate 2-4 hours.

Step 2

Add 1 tablespoon honey to remaining marinade, cover, and store in refrigerator for later use.

Step 3

Heat grill to medium high heat and grease grill grate. Grill chicken undisturbed for 5 minutes on one side, or until char marks appear and chicken releases easily from grill. Flip and cook a few minutes more on other side or until internal temperature reaches 160°F. Remove chicken and let rest while salads are assembled.

Step 4

Divide lettuce, bacon, celery, red peppers, red onion, cilantro, and blue cheese crumbles between 4 plates. Chop up chicken into bite sized pieces and top salad plates. Drizzle reserved marinade with honey over the top of chicken. Serve salads with ranch or blue cheese dressing.
