Chicken "Club" Salad (Chicken, Bacon and Tomato Salad with Croutons)

1. 1

   In a bowl drizzle the bread cubes with the oil, tossing them to coat them evenly, and season them with salt.

2. 2

   Spread the bread cubes in a jelly-roll pan, toast them in the middle of a preheated 350 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are golden, and let them cool.

3. 3

   In a skillet cook the bacon over the moderate heat, stirring, until it is crisp and transfer it with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.

4. 4

   In a large bowl combine well the chicken, the tomatoes, the scallions, two thirds of the bacon, the mayonnaise, and salt and pepper to taste, divide the salad among 6 plates, and arrange the croutons around it.

5. 5

   Garnish each serving with some of the remaining bacon and a basil sprig.
