Yield: 4 Servings

Ingredients:
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts (4 to 5 oz. each)
Olive oil
Essence
1/2 pound diced turkey bacon
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
2 tablespoons nonfat plain yogurt
2 tablespoons chicken broth
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 heads Bibb lettuce, washed, cored, patted dry and thinly sliced
1 large, ripe avocado, peeled, pitted and diced
1 Beefsteak tomato, seeded and chopped
2 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled and thinly sliced

Method:
Preheat the grill. Drizzle the chicken breasts with a little olive oil, then season with Essence. Grill the chicken until the juices run clear, about 4 minutes per side. Remove from the grill, cool and dice.

Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until it begins to crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

Whisk together 2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese with yogurt, chicken broth and lemon juice until well combined. Season with salt and pepper. Toss the lettuce in a large bowl with some of the dressing.

Season the avocado, tomatoes and eggs with salt and pepper.

To serve, mound equal amounts of the lettuce in the center of 4 servings plates. Arrange the chicken, bacon, avocado, tomatoes, eggs and the remaining blue cheese on top of the lettuce.
