Rotisserie Chicken Salad with Charred Spring onion Dressing

Ingredients for Rotisserie Chicken Salad with Charred Spring onion Dressing

• 140g country-style bread, crusts removed, torn into 1" pieces

• 10 tablespoons olive oil, divided

• 2 spring onions

• Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper

• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

• 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar

• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

• 1 tablespoon mayonnaise, preferably Hellmann’s (Best Foods)

• 1 small rotisserie chicken, meat pulled from bones and shredded

• 6 radishes, trimmed, cut into wedges

• 1 head of Bibb lettuce, leaves separated

• 1 avocado, sliced, divided

Preheat oven to 232°C. Toss bread and 3 tablespoons oil on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Bake until golden and crisp around the edges, 8–12 minutes; let croutons cool.

Meanwhile, separate spring onion whites from greens. Finely chop whites; place in a large bowl. Finely chop greens. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small skillet over medium. Cook greens, stirring often, until blackened around edges and crisp, about 3 minutes. Scrape into bowl with whites, then whisk in lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, and mayonnaise; season with salt and pepper. Gradually whisk in remaining 90ml oil.

Pour half of dressing into a small bowl; set aside. Add chicken, radishes, and croutons to bowl with remaining dressing and toss to coat.

Arrange lettuce and half of avocado on a platter; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with 45ml reserved dressing; top with chicken salad. Tuck remaining avocado around; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with remaining dressing.
