Cobb Chicken Salad Two Ways Recipes

Steps:

• Dressing: Whisk together French's Dijon Mustard, shallots, lemon juice, sugar, salt, and pepper. Gradually whisk in the olive oil until dressing is fully emulsified. Set aside.
• Rub chicken breasts with olive oil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.
• Heat up an oiled skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until seared on the first side, 3-4 minutes, then flip the chicken. Cover with a lid to allow the chicken to cook through, 7-10 minutes. Once the chicken is cooked through, remove from pan and let rest for 5-10 minutes, then cut into slices.
• Cut the hard-boiled eggs into quarters. Cut the bacon into 1-inch (2 ½ cm) pieces.
• Arrange the lettuce on a large platter. On top of the lettuce, place small piles of the chicken, eggs, bacon, tomatoes, radishes, cucumbers, and avocado.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan or nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Coat chicken breasts with 2 teaspoons oil, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Wash hands. Grill or pan-fry chicken 6 to 7 minutes on each side. Remove from heat and let rest 5 minutes.
• In a small pot, cover eggs with cold water. Place over high heat and bring water to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, cover the pot and turn off the heat. Set a timer for 10 minutes. After the 10 minutes, cool eggs under cold running water. Peel and chop.
• Brown chopped bacon in a skillet over medium high heat. Drain bacon on paper towels.
• Chop 3 hearts of romaine lettuce and place in a large serving platter or salad bowl. Dress chopped lettuce with the juice of 1 1/2 lemons. Drizzle remaining 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil over lettuce. Season greens with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Toss diced avocados with juice of remaining 1/2 lemon, to retard browning.
• Halve chicken breasts and chop the meat.
• To serve, arrange rows of chopped chicken, chopped hard boiled egg, crisp bacon bits, diced avocado, diced tomato, chopped red onion and shredded cheese on top of either 4 individual portions of dressed romaine or 1 large serving platter.
