Cooking Steps

PREP
1
  • Wash and dry produce.

  • Trim and discard root end from lettuce; separate leaves. Reserve 6 whole lettuce leaves (12 leaves for 4 servings); thinly slice 3-4 leaves. Dice tomato into ¼-inch pieces.

 

WARM CHICKEN
2
  • Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and warmed through, 2-3 minutes.

  • Turn off heat; transfer to a plate and let cool slightly.

ASSEMBLE SALAD
3
  • In a large bowl, whisk together dressing, mayonnaise, and half the mustard (all for 4 servings) until combined.

  • Add chopped lettuce, tomato, chicken, and half the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Toss until everything is coated in dressing.

FINISH & SERVE
4
  • Gently crush croutons in their bag.

  • Divide reserved lettuce leaves between plates. Fill with chicken salad. Top with remaining Parmesan, almonds, and croutons. Serve.
