Your favorite simple sandwich in salad form! Easy BLC salad, packed full of salty bacon, chicken, cheese and lettuce! A perfect addition to any lunch or as a side!
Prepare chicken by trimming away any fat and pounding it down into an even thickness. Sprinkle one side of breast with pepper and salt. Heat a large skillet with 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. When skillet is warm, place chicken seasoned side down into pan. Immediately sprinkle unseasoned side with pepper and salt. Cover with a splatter screen or lid. Cook for approximately 3 minutes before checking and flipping. Cook for an additional 3 minutes. Slice through and check that it has cooked through. Transfer to a plate to cool in the fridge.
Use the same warm pan for your bacon. Cook on one side for 1-2 minutes before flipping and cooking an additional 1-2 minutes. Cook time may vary. Adjust per your liking. Repeat process with any remaining bacon strips. Pat with paper towels to remove excess grease. Chop into small to medium sized pieces.
Gather all ingredients: chopped bacon, chopped romain, shredded cheese, croutons, cooled chicken and dressing if desired. Slice chicken into bite size pieces. In a large bowl, toss all ingredients together (reserving the dressing). Divide among plates or bowls, topping off with desired dressing and enjoy.
