Ingredients

3/4 pound boneless skinless chicken thigh
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper divided
6 strips cooked bacon crumbled
4 cups wild lettuce mix
3 ounces blue cheese crumbled
1 large tomato chopped

For the dressing

3 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3/4 teaspoon sugar substitute like xylitol or erythritol

Instructions

Season the chicken with salt and half the black pepper. Cook in a skillet over medium-high heat for about 6 minutes per side, until cooked through. Chicken should be cooked to 165°F. Once cooled, roughly chop the chicken.
In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the dressing and whisk vigorously to combine.
Divide the lettuce among the bowls. Add the blue cheese, tomatoes, chopped chicken, and crumbled bacon. Drizzle with the dressing. Top with the remaining black pepper.

Notes

Substitute with chicken breast, if you want. This will lower the fat content of the salad.
