 Recipe of the Day

Spring Chicken Salad

Spring Chicken Salad

Ingredients

    * 1/2 pound small red-skinned potatoes, halved
    * Kosher salt
    * 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
    * 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
    * 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
    * 1/4 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
    * Freshly ground pepper
    * 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
    * 4 romaine hearts, torn
    * 1 rotisserie chicken, skin removed and meat shredded
    * (about 2 cups)
    * 1 Kirby cucumber, peeled, halved lengthwise, seeded and sliced
    * 4 radishes, cut into wedges
    * 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced

Directions

Place the potatoes in a small pot and cover with water. Season with salt, cover and boil until fork-tender, about 6 minutes. Drain and cool.

Meanwhile, pulse the chives, tarragon, vinegar, yogurt, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a food processor. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil and pulse to make a thick dressing.

Toss the romaine, potatoes, chicken, cucumber, radishes and bell pepper with the dressing in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
