My version of this recipe from California is quick and easy when you buy and use a rotisserie chicken from your local deli.
2 tbsp champagne vinegar or rice vinegar
4 tsp Dijon mustard
1/4 tsp salt (optional, I suggest you omit)
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
10 cups torn Bibb or Boston lettuce
1 rotisserie chicken, skin removed and chicken roughly shredded
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
1/2 cup sliced almonds
In a small bowl, whisk vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper. Gradually whisk in oil until blended.
In a large salad bowl, combine the lettuce, chicken, cheese and almonds. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad; toss to coat.
Yield: 8 servings
