Chicken Salad with Blue Cheese, Apple, and Frisee
- 1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 heads frisee, cored and trimmed of dark outer leaves
- 1 Golden Delicious apple, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
- 1/4 pound blue cheese, crumbled
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted on a baking sheet at 375F until lightly browned and fragrant
- 1/4 cup lightly packed fresh tarragon leaves
- 2 cups sliced leftover chicken
- Make the vinaigrette.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the vinegar and mustard together with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few generous grinds black pepper.
- Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking so it thickens and forms an emulsion.
- In a large bowl, gently toss together the frisee, sliced apple, blue cheese, walnuts, and tarragon.
- Toss this with half the vinaigrette and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Top with the chicken, drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette, and serve.
