Warm Chicken, Bacon & Potato Salad image

I invented this recipe following a rather tasty pub lunch I devoured back in '99. The result is delicious (but pretty high fat) warm salad that's beautiful in the summer. I'm afraid the amounts are estimated somewhat as I usually make this from memory.

Categories     Chicken

Time 45m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 slices bacon (I prefer back bacon)
500 g baby new potatoes
2 chicken breasts
4 garlic cloves, whole, bruised
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons sugar, divided
mixed salad green
salad dressing (to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius or 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Dry-fry the bacon for approximately 5 minutes until crispy and leave to cool.
  • Parboil the new potatoes for approximately 5 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes and place on a greased baking tray with the chicken breasts and garlic cloves (whole but bruised).
  • Cover potatoes, chicken and garlic with oil.
  • Sprinkle one tablespoon of the sugar over the potatoes.
  • Roast for approximately 30 minutes, turning once halfway and sprinkling the remainder of the sugar over the potatoes.
  • Prepare the salad (we use a small bag of pre-prepared salad between the two of us).
  • Chop the bacon and add it in with the salad.
  • Remove potatoes and chicken from the oven. Chop the chicken into bite-sized pieces and mix all ingredients together with the salad.
  • Add salad dressing to taste (we like Paul Newmans Italian dressing personally) and serve warm!
