Buffalo Chicken Salad Featuring Bacon and Blue Cheese

Ingredients 0/12

Step 1

Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning it now and then until it’s nice and crispy, which should take about 10 minutes. Once it’s done, transfer the bacon to some paper towels to drain and cool.

Step 2

Use the bacon fat left in the skillet to warm up the chicken. Season it with a little salt and pepper and cook just until it starts to brown, about 3 minutes. Drain the chicken on paper towels, then toss it in a big bowl with the wing sauce until all the pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl and pop it in the fridge for about half an hour to let the flavors meld.

Step 3

When you’re ready, crumble the bacon into bite-sized pieces and add it to the chicken. Then throw in the tomatoes, radishes, lettuce, cucumber, celery, red onion, blue cheese, and your favorite dressing. Give everything a good toss, and divide the salad between two plates. Enjoy!
