Serves: Yields 4 servings

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons finely minced shallot
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 10 cups mixed salad greens
• 10 ounces shredded cooked chicken breast
• 2 large eggs, hard-boiled, peeled and chopped
• 2 medium tomatoes, diced
• 1 large cucumber, seeded and sliced
• 1 avocado, diced
• 2 slices cooked turkey bacon, crumbled
• 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese, (optional)

Directions

Whisk vinegar, shallot, mustard, pepper and salt in a small bowl to combine. Whisk in oil until combined. Place salad greens in a large bowl. Add half of the dressing and toss to coat.

Divide the greens among 4 plates. Arrange equal portions of chicken, egg, tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, bacon and goat cheese (if using) on top of the lettuce. Drizzle the salads with the remaining dressing.

TIPS & NOTES
• Tips: To poach chicken breasts, place boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a medium skillet or saucepan and add lightly salted water to cover; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low and simmer gently until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 15 minutes. To shred the chicken, use two forks to pull it apart into long shreds.
• To hard-boil eggs, place in a single layer in a saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and cook at the barest simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, pour out hot water and fill the pan with a mixture of cold water and ice cubes; let stand until the eggs are completely cooled.
