Ingredients
  

Salad

  • 1 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast 8oz
  • ½ tsp Kosher Salt
  • ½ tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • ½ pound Brussels Sprouts Very thinly sliced
  • 1 head Romaine Lettuce Chopped
  • 1 Apple (Honeycrisp or Pink Lady) Chopped
  • 3 slices Thick Cut Bacon Cut into pieces
  • ½ cup Blue Cheese Crumbled

Dressing

  • 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp Dijon Mustard

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 375°. Place chicken breast into a shallow baking dish and sprinkle with the salt and pepper, then drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until chicken reaches 165 degrees.
  • While chicken is baking, thinly shred the brussels sprouts using a mandolin. Chop the romaine, dice the apple and set everything aside.
  • In a heavy bottom skillet, fry the bacon over medium heat until crisp. Let cool on a paper towel lined plate. Then crumble into bits and set aside.
  • Make the dressing by whisking the remaining olive oil, salt and pepper with dijon mustard and apple cider vinegar until emulsified.
  • Using two forks, shred the chicken breast in its baking dish, tossing in the juices.
  • Place the produce, bacon and chicken into a large mixing bowl, pour dressing over top and toss until well coated. Divide onto serving plates and enjoy!
