Preparation

Step 1

If using prepared chicken, combine *shredded chicken* in a small bowl (not a ziplock - half the dressing stays in the bag) with 1 tablespoons of Frank's and 1 tablespoon of the blue cheese dressing and refrigerate until serving, taking out about 1/2 hour before dinner.

If using Actifry chicken, prepare according to recipe, toss with Frank's and set aside.

Add the celery, scallions and jalapenos to a serving bowl and top with the lettuce and refrigerate for an hour or two until serving. Just before serving, add the dressing and toss well to mix and season with salt and pepper. Plate the salad and top with the chicken, croutons and blue cheese.
