Steps:
- Warm a small-medium skillet over a medium-high heat. When it's warm add the bacon and cook until gently brown and ideally crisp on both sides.
- Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside. Add the chicken to the pan and cook a few minutes on both sides until cooked through.
- Thinly slice the romaine and cut larger pieces in half (eg at top of leaves). Place all of the dressing ingredients (oil, lemon, mustard and honey) in a small bowl or jar and whisk/shake to combine. You can do these as the chicken and bacon cooks.
- Once the chicken is cooked through, remove from pan and slice both the chicken and bacon into small bite-sized pieces. Add both to the sliced romaine, drizzle over the dressing then toss to mix. Serve, ideally with meats still warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large frying pan, then add the bacon and garlic. Sizzle for about 15 mins until the bacon is crisp and brown, then scoop it out with a slotted spoon into a bowl, leaving the garlic and bacon fat in the pan. Throw the bread into the pan and toss in the bacon fat, adding the remaining oil if the pan is dry. Fry the croutons for 5 mins on a low heat, tossing occasionally until golden and crisp, then remove pan from heat.
- While the croutons are frying, make the dressing. Whisk the chopped shallot, vinegar, mustard and 1 tbsp water in a small bowl. add the oil gradually to make a thick dressing, season, then set aside. Cut away and keep the lighter lettuce leaves and wash if needed, discarding any of the tough outer leaves.
- When all of your ingredients are ready, bring a pan of water to a gentle boil and add the vinegar. Crack the eggs into small bowls then gently lower into the water and poach for 3 mins exactly. Line a plate with kitchen paper and use a slotted spoon to lift the eggs onto the plate (see tip).
- Tip most of the croutons, lardons, all the leaves and two-thirds of the dressing into a salad bowl and toss well. Pile the salad high into the middle of two plates and arrange the remaining croutons and lardons around the side of the plates with the shallot rings. Drizzle the rest of the dressing around the outside and, just before serving, top each plate of salad with an egg, then season it.

SALAD WITH EGG DRESSING
Egg sparks the taste of this pleasantly sweet cooked dressing from Mary Bloom of Titusville, Pennsylvania. She serves it warm over greens tossed with bacon bits, tomato and more. "Besides lettuce, it's also good over fresh spinach or cabbage," she adds.
