If you love a good club sandwich but want something a bit lighter, this salad is going to be your new go to meal. It hits the perfect balance of crunchy breaded chicken, salty bacon, and fresh garden vegetables.

My favorite thing about this dish is the homemade ranch dressing. It adds such a bright, herby finish that ties all those rich textures together beautifully. It is a wonderful option for a quick lunch or a relaxed family dinner.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked breaded chicken bites, chopped
  • 4 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 large ripe avocado, sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 4 cups romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 1/2 cup cucumber, sliced
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the chopped romaine lettuce into a large serving bowl as your base.

  2. 2

    Arrange the cooked chicken bites, crumbled bacon, avocado slices, cherry tomatoes, and cucumbers on top of the greens.

  3. 3

    Drizzle your ranch dressing evenly over the salad.

  4. 4

    Garnish with the fresh chives and add a pinch of salt and black pepper if you like.

  5. 5

    Toss everything together gently right before serving to keep the chicken crispy.

💡 Tips

Store any leftover dressing in the fridge for up to three days. If you plan on keeping leftovers, try to add the avocado fresh right before you eat to prevent it from browning.
