Report
This salad is really easy, but packed with tasty flavor, and easy to add more to as the mood suits.

Ingredients
- 6 leaves romaine approx
- 3 ½ oz chicken tenders approx weight (or thigh)
- 3 lices smoked bacon (streaky)
For honey mustard dressing
- 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice or wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard or grain mustard
- 2 teaspoon honey
Instructions
- Warm a small-medium skillet over a medium-high heat. When it's warm add the bacon and cook until gently brown and ideally crisp on both sides.
- Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside. Add the chicken to the pan and cook a few minutes on both sides until cooked through.
- Thinly slice the romaine and cut larger pieces in half (eg at top of leaves). Place all of the dressing ingredients (oil, lemon, mustard and honey) in a small bowl or jar and whisk/shake to combine. You can do these as the chicken and bacon cooks.
- Once the chicken is cooked through, remove from pan and slice both the chicken and bacon into small bite-sized pieces. Add both to the sliced romaine, drizzle over the dressing then toss to mix. Serve, ideally with meats still warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- Salad leaf and meat quantities are approximate - adjust to taste. For more servings, simply multiply everything up.
- Both chicken tenders and thigh meat work here, just make sure it is trimmed and flattened out if thick to cook quicker.
