Method

Base greens

  1. 1

    Prepare greens

    Rinse the romaine and any greens; dry thoroughly using a salad spinner or towels.

  2. 2

    Bed for salad

    Tear the greens into bite-sized pieces and spread evenly on a large platter or wide bowls to create a bed for toppings.

Proteins

  1. 3

    Prepare chicken

    If using raw chicken, season and grill or bake until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Let cool slightly, then dice into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 4

    Cook bacon

    Cook bacon in a skillet until crisp, drain on paper towels, and crumble.

Cheese and eggs

  1. 5

    Eggs

    Hard-boil eggs for 9-12 minutes. Cool in ice water, peel, and slice.

  2. 6

    Cheese

    Crumble blue cheese and set aside; these will be added in layers or on top during plating.

Vegetables and extras

  1. 7

    Avocado and tomatoes

    Dice avocado and tomatoes. Lightly salt to taste to help preserve color if not serving immediately.

  2. 8

    Cucumber

    Dice cucumber and have ready for plating; can be added as a fresh crunch in rows or scattered.

Dressing

  1. 9

    Make vinaigrette

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until emulsified.

  2. 10

    Finish and serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning. Drizzle dressing over the assembled salad just before serving, or serve on the side.
