8 slices bacon
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
Kosher salt and pepper
1 2 1/2- to 3-pound rotisserie chicken
2 heads green leaf lettuce, torn into pieces
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
1 pint cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1 avocado, chopped
1 small red onion, chopped

1
Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the bacon drippings to a small bowl.
2
Add the oil, vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the bacon drippings. Whisk and set aside.
3
Shred the chicken meat, using your fingers or a fork, discarding the skin and bones.
4
Combine the lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, avocado, onion, and chicken in a large bowl.
5
Crumble the bacon over the salad and serve with the vinaigrette.
6
This classic dish can be made with almost any kind of lettuce. If you like a crunchier salad, use romaine. If you prefer tender greens, try Boston or Bibb. For a hit of pepperiness, opt for arugula or add a few leaves of radicchio or endive to your standard mix.
