List of Ingredients
2 tablespoons diced prosciutto
8 cups romaine and iceberg lettuce blend, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
2 grilled boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
1/4 cup diced tomato
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
1/4 cup sliced black olives (any kind)
1/4 cup carrots (sliced in coins, then halved)
1/4 cup diced and seeded cucumbers
1/4 cup crumbled corn chips
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1/2 cup red wine vinaigrette (see recipe)Recipe
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place prosciutto on a cookie sheet and bake until crisp, about 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
To make salad, combine all remaining ingredients except vinaigrette in a large bowl. Add vinaigrette and mix well. Serve immediately. Makes 4 servings.
Red wine vinaigrette
1 green onion, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly chopped garlic
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
Place onion, garlic, honey and vinegar in a blender. Start mixing on highest speed. Very slowly add the olive oil into the blender to emulsify. If oil is added too quickly, ingredients will not combine. After all the oil is added, season with salt and pepper. Store unused vinaigrette in refrigerator. Bring to room temperature and shake well before using. Makes 2 cups.
