Portillo's Chopped Salad

Ingredients

  • 1 heart of romaine
  • 1 medium-sized head of iceberg lettuce
  • 1 can of chickpeas, rinsed under water
  • 10 slices of prosciutto, cooked in saute pan until crisp
  • 1 box of cherry or grape tomatoes
  • 1/4 small red onion
  • 1/2 pound Ditalini pasta
  • 1 block of feta (6 oz), crumbled up
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup of olive oil
  • 1/3 cup of red wine vinegar
  • salt and pepper
  • Italian seasoning

Directions

1

Set a pot to boil and cook the pasta noodles until al dente. Rinse and run under cool water. Set aside.

2

 Heat a pan with olive oil and pan fry the chicken breasts. I cooked one side for 10 minutes, flipped, and then cooked the other side for another 10. Set aside to cool.

3

While the chicken is cooking, chop your romaine lettuce, iceberg lettuce and radichio. Add to a bowl with chopped tomatoes.

4

Thinly slice or mince the red onion and add that to the bowl.

5

Add chickpeas, feta and ditalini pasta.

6

When the chicken as cooled, cut into chunks and add to the bowl.

7

Cut your prosciutto into bite sized pieces and add to a hot saute pan. Keep an eye on it as it cooks, moving the prosciutto around so none of it burns. Once the pieces are crisp, remove from the heat.

8

In a small bowl, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Whisk with a fork and pour over the salad.

9

 Stir in the crispy prosciutto last, so they don't get soggy.

10

 Serve with Georges DuBeouf Fleurie wine!
