Summer Salad with Almond-Crusted Chicken & Yogurt Chive Dressing
adapted from Fine Cooking

Salad
Butter lettuce, torn and washed, or arugula
1 cup sliced Strawberries or 2 sliced Nectarines
1 Cucumber, peeled and sliced
Almond-Crusted Chicken

Dressing

1/4 cup whole milk yogurt or buttermilk
1 Tbs. sour cream
1 Tbs. white balsamic vinegar [I often use plain balsamic]
1/2 tsp. honey
2 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
1 Tbs. thinly sliced fresh chives or green onions
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

  • In a blender or magic bullet (my fav), combine dressing ingredients. Adjust seasoning to taste
  • To make the dressing manually, combine the buttermilk, sour cream, vinegar, and honey in a bowl. Slowly whisk in the oil to blend. Stir in the chives and season to taste with salt and pepper
  • Combine salad ingredients and drizzle with dressing
