It’s out of this world amazing!! And with my top secret shortcut, this chicken Cobb salad is a breeze to whip up, even on busy weeknights!
What is a Cobb Salad?
The Cobb salad dates back almost a century, so named for its purported creator, famed Hollywood restaurateur Robert Howard Cobb. It is a big, hearty dish, meant to be enjoyed as a main course. (source)
A traditional chicken Cobb salad recipe consists of a mix of chopped lettuce and salad greens, tomatoes, avocado, bacon, hard-boiled eggs, and chopped chicken. Some recipes also include blue cheese, though we did not include any dairy in ours.
While it is common to see a chicken Cobb salad with grilled chicken, I think that it is especially delicious with crispy chicken. And when it comes to chicken, it doesn’t get any easier or tastier than Tyson® Crispy Chicken Strips!
