Cobb Salad


A Cobb salad is a American garden salad.This recipes is inspired by the dish I had at a Friend of a Farmer in NYC.

Ingredients:
Chopped salad greens - iceberg & Romaine lettuce, Watercress & Rocket,
Tomatoes, 
Crisp bacon/pancetta, 
Roasted chicken breast,
Hard-boiled egg, 
Avocado,
Croutons,
Honey and Mustard dressing,


Method:
Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil and put the 2 eggs, and leave boiling for 6-7 minutes.



Meanwhile fry the chopped bacon with a little bit of butter until crispy.


Chop the tomatoes and avocado and mix with the salad leaves, liberally applying the honey and mustard dressing. Incorporate the roasted chicken and bacon (once cooked) into the leaves. Add a small handful of croutons.
Peel the hard-boiled eggs halve into two. Season and serve.
