Ingredients
Italian Vinaigrette
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon coarse black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
- 2 teaspoons dry oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/3 cup red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup olive oil
Salad
- 4 ounces cooked chickpeas lightly chopped
- 1 head iceberg lettuce chopped into 1/4- to 1/2-inch pieces
- 1 cup basil leaves chopped
- 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 12 ounces poached chicken breast diced
- 8 ounces dry wine salami diced
- 8 ounces plum tomatoes diced divided use
- 1/2 cup grated provolone cheese divided use
- 3 green onions chopped, divided use
- 8 lettuce leaves
Instructions
- To prepare the dressing: Whisk the egg yolk and water in a small bowl. Cover the bowl with a small plate and microwave on high for 10 seconds, or until the mixture starts to expand. Continue to cook for 5 more seconds. Remove from the microwave and whisk with a clean whisk. Cover and return to the microwave 5 more seconds. Remove from the microwave and whisk with a clean whisk. Cover and let sit 1 minute.
- In a food processor, combine the egg mixture, Dijon, garlic, salt, pepper, dry mustard, oregano, sugar, vinegar, and lemon juice. Process until well blended. With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil and process until emulsified. Set aside. (This makes about 1 1/2 cups of dressing. Refrigerate any unused dressing.)
- To prepare the salad: Combine the chickpeas, iceberg lettuce, basil, mozzarella, chicken, salami and half of the tomatoes, provolone, and green onions. Toss with the dressing. Divide evenly between 8 lettuce-lined plates. Garnish with the remaining tomatoes, provolone, and green onions.
