Cobb Salad

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

For the Salad:

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (grilled and sliced)
  • 6 cups romaine lettuce (chopped)
  • 4 slices bacon (cooked and crumbled)
  • 2 hard-boiled eggs (sliced)
  • 1 avocado (diced)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • ½ cup blue cheese crumbles

For the Honey Dijon Dressing:

  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the dressing by whisking together olive oil, Dijon mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Grill the chicken over medium heat for about 6-7 minutes per side, until fully cooked. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
  • Assemble the salad by placing chopped romaine lettuce in a large bowl or platter.
  • Arrange the toppings: grilled chicken, bacon, eggs, avocado, cherry tomatoes, and blue cheese over the lettuce.
  • Drizzle with the honey Dijon dressing just before serving.
  • Toss gently to combine, or serve as-is for a beautiful presentation.

Notes

  • You can substitute feta or goat cheese for blue cheese if you prefer a milder flavor.
  • For extra crunch, add croutons or toasted nuts.
  • The dressing can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for up to one week.
