Add a photoThis is an easy and tasty recipe. It also looks attractive. Buy crusty bread that will that will soak up the dressing without becoming too soggy! Flavorful tomatoes help a lot! I adapted the recipe from Sunset.

I'd rate the bread salad a 4-4.5. It was delicious! But I'd only rate the chicken a 3. Maybe if the thyme were rubbed under the skin, or if smallish breasts are used, the breasts will have more flavor.Yo he cocinado/probado esta recetaEsta es una variación

- 22 de Mayo de 2008This was an amazing dish, it tasted so "fancy," yet the prep time was 45 minutes. I love how the bread in the salad just soaked up the dressing, and the arugula was a nice contrast with the chicken. It was assembled quickly and made for a delicious weeknight dinner. This is a great company dish because you can prep it before hand and pop it in the oven when the company comes. MMMMMMM- GOOD!
