Ingredients
Vinaigrette
- 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 lime juice of
- 1 pomegranate juice of
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red chilli flakes
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Salad
- 4 cups arugula
- ½ lb cooked turkey breast sliced into strips
- 8 bacon strips cooked to just crisp and sliced into thin strips
- ½ cup walnuts chopped and toasted
- Seeds of one pomegranate about 1 cup
Instructions
Prep
- Toast walnuts by spreading in a non-stick pan on the stovetop over low heat for 15 - 20 minutes. Give the pan a shake every now and again for even toasting. When the nuts are very warm, fragrant, and slightly golden, remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Cook bacon until just crisp, transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and allow to cool. When cooled, slice into thin strips.
- Cut the pomegranate in half, and squeeze the cut halves over a bowl, using a strainer or squeezing through your fingers to keep the seeds from falling into the juice.
- Squeeze the pomegranate seeds into another bowl, removing any pulp
Vinaigrette
- Put all ingredients into a jar with a lid and shake vigorously to combine, or use a blender or immersion blender to emulsify it, about thirty seconds. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Salad
- Divide arugula between 4 plates and add turkey, bacon and walnuts. Scatter pomegranate seeds over each plate and drizzle with vinaigrette.
Notes
- Keep ingredients separate until serving.
- Try cooking bacon in the oven for easy cleanup. Just lay the slices on a parchment lined baking sheet in a single layer and bake at 350° for 10-15 minutes. You'll have perfectly crisp bacon with no spattered grease.
- If you can't find a fresh pomegranate, you can use dried pomegranates, along with pomegranate juice.
- Pomegranate seeds really make this cobb salad, but you can also use dried cranberries, and cranberry juice to make an equally delicious turkey cranberry salad.
- This can easily be a chicken salad if you don't have turkey.
- Ham can be used in place of the bacon, especially if you have leftovers of that as well.
- You can substitute pecans or any other nuts for the walnuts.
