Ingredients
Salad:
- 3 cups chopped iceberg lettuce (about ½ a head or slightly less)
- 2 cups chopped chicory (also called curly endive)
- ¾ cup chopped watercress
- 8 ounces poached turkey breast, finely chopped
- 2 medium ripe tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and finely chopped
- 1 avocado, peeled, seeded, and finely chopped
- ½ cup (about 2 ½ ounces) crumbled blue cheese
- 6 strips bacon, cooked crisp, drained, and crumbled
- 3 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
The Hollywood Brown Derby Old-Fashioned French Dressing:
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ½ teaspoon minced or crushed garlic
- ¼ teaspoon sugar
- ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
- ⅛ teaspoon dry mustard (mustard powder)
- ⅓ cup vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Toss the iceberg lettuce, chicory, and watercress together and arrange in a large salad bowl.
- In straight and separate lines, arrange the turkey, tomatoes, avocado, blue cheese, bacon, and eggs on top of the greens. Sprinkle the chives in a diagonal line across the salad.
- To make the dressing, in a small bowl whisk together the water, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, garlic, sugar, pepper, and dry mustard until combined.
- Whisking constantly, add the vegetable oil and the olive oil in a slow steady stream until the dressing is emulsified. Store covered and chilled until ready to serve. Whisk the dressing to blend just before serving. Makes ⅔ cup dressing.
- Present the salad at the table, toss with the dressing and serve.
Notes
- Aim to chop everything into about ¼-inch pieces, from the greens to the toppings.
- For a shortcut: use a slab of store-bought roasted turkey from the deli counter. You can also try making the salad with roasted or grilled chicken breast instead.
