4 chicken breasts , skin on
8 slices streaky bacon
1 garlic clove , crushed
juice ½ lemon
3 tbsp natural yogurt

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Season the chicken and place in a snug roasting tin. Drape the bacon around the chicken and roast for 15-20 mins until the bacon is crisp and the chicken just cooked through.

Discard the outer leaves of the lettuce and tear the rest over a platter, mixing gently with the dressing. Serve with the chicken and crisp bacon, shaving over extra Parmesan, if you like.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

4 rindless streaky bacon rashers
225g bag ready-to-eat Caesar salad (which includes croûtons, dressing)
1 ripe avocado
2 cooked chicken breasts , any skin and bones removed

Steps:

Stir fry the bacon in a frying pan for 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove, then sprinkle the croûtons into the fat in the pan and toss over a medium heat for a minute or two to give them flavour and crisp them up.
Divide the leaves between 2 plates. Halve the avocado and dig out the stone; peel and cut into chunks and scatter over the leaves. Tear the chicken into pieces on top. Finally, snap the bacon into chunky pieces over the chicken and top with the croûtons.
Drizzle the dressing over the whole salad and finish with a good dusting of parmesan and a grind of pepper.
