Ingredients
For the mustard vinaigrette:
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
For the salad:
- 2 large hearts romaine lettuce finely shredded (8 cups packed or 16 ounces, see note 1)
- 4 roma tomatoes seed and finely chopped (2 cups)
- 1 cup canned garbanzo beans drained and rinsed
- 8 ounces genoa salami julienned (1 1/2 cups)
- 8 ounces deli turkey julienned (1 1/2 cups, see note 2)
- 8 ounces shredded Mozzarella cheese (2 cups)
- fresh basil chiffonade, for garnish
Instructions
- To make the vinaigrette, in a small bowl or in a jar with a tight-fitting lid, add olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, marjoram, and salt and pepper to taste (I like 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper). Whisk or shake to combine.
- In a large bowl, add the lettuce. Drizzle with vinaigrette (you don't have to use all of it) and toss to combine. Top with tomatoes, chickpeas, salami, turkey, and mozzarella cheese, serving extra dressing on the side. Garnish with fresh basil.
Notes
- Romaine lettuce: CPK uses romaine, but feel free to sub in the lettuce of your choice. Green and red leaf, butter, and iceberg are all good choices.
- Deli turkey: Leftover cubed or shredded turkey (or even chicken) may be substituted for the deli turkey.
- Yield: This recipe makes 16 cups of salad or 8 (2-cup) servings, equivalent to a half-sized salad at CPK. To enjoy a full-sized portion per the CPK menu, plan on 4 cups salad per person.
