Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Romaine lettuce
- 2 medium Boiled potatoes
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 5 pieces Radishes
- 2 large Hard-boiled eggs
- 1 cup Cooked chicken breast (shredded or sliced)
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
Instructions
Wash and dry the romaine lettuce thoroughly, then tear it into bite-sized pieces and place it in a large serving bowl.
Boil the potatoes in salted water until fork-tender (about 15 minutes). Drain, allow them to cool, then peel and slice into 1/4-inch rounds.
Halve the cherry tomatoes, slice the cucumber into thin rounds, and thinly slice the radishes.
Peel and quarter the hard-boiled eggs. Set aside for later assembly.
If not already cooked, grill or poach the chicken breast and shred or slice it into bite-sized pieces.
In a small mixing bowl, prepare the vinaigrette by whisking together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until emulsified.
Assemble the salad: On top of the romaine, arrange the sliced potatoes, halved tomatoes, cucumber rounds, radish slices, chicken, and quartered eggs in an attractive pattern or scatter evenly for a more rustic look.
Drizzle the vinaigrette evenly over the salad and sprinkle chopped parsley on top for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy this fresh and vibrant salad!
