This recipe is adapted from one that appeared in Bon Appetit in 2004. I added smoked chicken breasts, candied pecans, Gouda cheese and bacon to the original. I also added apple juice concentrate and mayonnaise to the dressing. The recipe makes two very large main dish salads or 4 smaller servings. If you are not into smoking foods as I am the chicken would be fine grilled.

For a wine I selected a Viansa 2012 Jade Ridge Pinot Noir. It is fruit forward with flavors or blackberry and spice.
