Ingredients

The following ingredients have 2 Servings
  • 4 slices thick cut bacon
  • 1 pint blueberries
  • ¼ cup crumbled goat or feta cheese
  • 1 handful small basil leaves
  • 4 cups farmers market lettuce
  • 2 corn on the cob (kernels removed)
  • 1-2 avocados
  • 1/2 pound boneless (skinless chicken breasts)
  • Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 tablespoons dried oregano
  • 2 garlic cloves (finely chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
  • 1/4 cup champagne vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

Instruction

  • Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat and add the bacon. Cook until crispy and the fat is rendered. Remove the bacon and transfer it on a paper towel lined plate. Drain off most of the bacon grease, leaving just about 2 teaspoons.
  • Season the chicken with salt and pepper and coat with the fresh and dried herbs. In the same skillet, over medium-high heat, add the chicken to bacon grease and cook until golden and crisp on both sides, about 5 to 6 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and let rest. Slice into pieces when ready to serve.
  • In a large bowl, assemble the salad. Start with the bed of lettuce, add the chicken, blueberries, cheese, basil leaves, torn up bacon, avocado and corn. Drizzle with the vinaigrette. Serve immediately.
