Chopped Cobb Salad

  1. Make the dressing: Combine 1/4 cup of water, the vinegar, sugar, lemon juice, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and garlic in a large bowl.
  2. Stir well until combined.
  3. Slowly pour in the olive oil and canola oil.
  4. Using a whisk, mix the dressing vigorously until creamy and thick.
  5. Taste, and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  6. Make the salad: Grill or broil the chicken breasts under a broiler or on an outdoor grill, or sear them in a very hot pan, for 3 to 4 minutes on one side, then for 2 to 3 minutes on the other side, until nicely seared on the outside and cooked thoroughly on the inside.
  7. Season with a little salt and pepper.
  8. Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes so the juices have a chance to distribute throughout the meat.
  9. Chop the chicken into 1/2-inch pieces.
  10. Bring a pot of water to a boil.
  11. Add the eggs, reduce the heat, and simmer for 12 minutes.
  12. Remove the eggs from the water and run under cold water.
  13. Peel them under the running water.
  14. Finely chop the eggs; set aside.
  15. Cook the bacon in a single layer in a skillet for 5 minutes, or until crisp, turning it once or twice.
  16. Drain on paper towels.
  17. Chop the bacon into a small dice.
  18. Wash the romaine, watercress, Belgian endive, and arugula thoroughly in several changes of water.
  19. Spin them dry in a salad spinner or pat them dry with paper towels.
  20. Chop into 1/4- to 1/2-inch pieces.
  21. Toss the greens together on a large platter.
  22. They will serve as a base for the other ingredients.
  23. Arrange the chicken, eggs, avocados, tomatoes, and bacon into individual piles around the greens.
  24. Just before serving, drizzle the dressing over the salad.
  25. Alternatively, pour the dressing into a cruet or pitcher and let guests dress their own salads.
