Steps:
- 1. In a small bowl, combine the 5 ingredients listed under BBQ Dressing, mix well. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
- 2. Place salad greens on a large platter. Sprinkle with tomatoes, chicken and bacon; garnish with eggs.
- 3. Drizzle with Dressing or serve the dressing on the side.
- 4. My tips...as I said in my above comment, I sometimes just serve it with Ranch or a Greek Feta Dressing. I like to use cherry tomatoes and just cut them in half. Use as many eggs as you like...and I also like to add cubed mozzarella cheese. You can also use cooked and cubed turkey instead of chicken!
Tips:
- For a crispier BLT chicken salad, use freshly cooked bacon and crispy lettuce.
- If you don't have any cooked chicken, you can use rotisserie chicken or canned chicken breast.
- To make a vegetarian BLT chicken salad, omit the chicken and add extra bacon and hard-boiled eggs.
- For a healthier BLT chicken salad, use Greek yogurt or avocado instead of mayonnaise.
- Serve BLT chicken salad on a bed of lettuce or in a wrap for a light and refreshing meal.
Conclusion:
BLT chicken salad is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken and bacon. This salad is packed with flavor and is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give BLT chicken salad a try!
