Creating a BLT Chicken Salad is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:

1. Cook the Chicken: If not already prepared, grill or boil chicken breast until fully cooked. Allow it to cool, then shred it.
2. Crisp the Bacon: In a skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel to drain excess grease, then crumble.
3. Prepare the Vegetables: Chop the romaine or iceberg lettuce and slice the red onion thinly. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
4. Make the Dressing: In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth.
5. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and red onion.
6. Dress the Salad: Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and gently toss until everything is well-coated.
7. Taste and Adjust: Taste the salad and add more salt or pepper if needed, adjusting to your preference.
8. Chill (optional): For best flavors, let the salad sit in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before serving.
9. Serve: Spoon the salad into bowls or plates to serve.

Following these steps will lead you to an incredible BLT Chicken Salad that’s not only delightful but also satisfying!
