Directions
Dressing: Blend all ingredients except oil and cheese in a blender (or using an immersion blender) until smooth. With the motor running, very gradually drizzle in oil. Once thick, blend in cheese just until uniformly combined. Makes about 1 1/2 cups (375 ml). Reserve in refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Salad Board: Arrange lettuce on the board and top with chicken, tomatoes, croutons, bacon and Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle grated eggs decoratively on top. Drizzle with dressing or serve on the side. Serve with lemon wedges
Tips
Toss a couple of extra chicken breasts on the grill ahead of time to have leftovers for this delicious salad or use deli-prepared grilled chicken.
Replace grilled chicken with chopped, cooked chicken fingers for a pub-style salad.
For Summary Cobb Salad Dressing Variation: remove 1 and 1/2 tbsp of Worcestershire sauce and anchovy paste and add 1 tbsp of plain yogurt or buttermilk to the dressing instead. Substitute white wine vinegar for red wine vinegar in the dressing. Add only 1 clove of garlic, grated instead of 2 cloves and remove the grated Parmesan cheese.
For Summary Cobb Salad Board Variation: use 8 cups of iceberg lettuce or mixed greens instead of romaine lettuce. Substitute grilled chicken breasts for roasted or grilled chicken of your choosing. Add a cup of sliced radishes, shredded red cabbage, and cubed Cheddar cheese. Remove the garlic croutons, crumbled bacon and shaved Parmesan and substitute it with 1 avocado sliced.
