Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 Tbsp olive oil, divided
2 cups (~3 slices) sourdough bread, cut/torn into 1-inch cubes
2 Tbsp Italian seasoning, divided
1 1/4 lb thinly sliced chicken breasts
1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated parmesan
12 oz mixed greens (~9 cups gently packed)
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup (~4 oz) fresh mozzarella balls, halved
1 avocado, diced
4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
1/4 cup olive oil
juice of 1 lemon (~2-3 Tbsp)
3 Tbsp prepared basil pesto
2 Tbsp tahini or sunflower butter
1 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1/4 tsp kosher salt and black pepper
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Combine bread, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning on a baking sheet; toss well and arrange in a single layer. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden. Remove to cool.
  • Meanwhile, combine panko, Parmesan, and remaining 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning in a shallow dish; mix well.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Dredge chicken in the panko, firmly pressing the chicken into the panko mixture to help it adhere; place in the heated skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side or until golden and cooked through; remove to a cutting board. After a few moments, thinly slice.
  • Combine all dressing ingredients in a small bowl or jar with a fitted lid; whisk or shake to thoroughly combine.
  • Place mixed greens in a large bowl and drizzle with just over half the dressing; toss well. Add the tomatoes, mozzarella, avocado, and bacon; toss well with a bit of additional dressing (reserve a drizzle to finish).
  • Distribute salad to each of 5 plates and top with sliced chicken and sourdough croutons. Finish with a drizzle of remaining dressing; serve immediately.
