Cobb Salad
Description
The Cobb Salad features a bed of romaine lettuce or a mix with watercress for a fresh, crisp base. On top, grilled chicken breast adds protein, accompanied by cooked chopped bacon and hard-boiled egg quarters for savory, hearty components. Cherry tomatoes and sliced avocado contribute brightness and creamy texture, while crumbled Roquefort cheese imbues a distinct sharpness. Chopped chives garnish the dish for a mild onion note.
The dressing combines extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, honey, Dijon mustard, kosher salt, and black pepper, whisked together to create a tangy and mildly sweet vinaigrette that complements the salad ingredients without overpowering them. The salad is arranged with ingredients lined up separately over the greens and served immediately after drizzling with the dressing to maintain freshness and texture.
