Main Course · Serves 2
with Buttery Breadcrumbs
Crisp lettuce meets juicy tomato, cool cucumber, tender turkey, and sharp cheddar in this satisfying salad. Golden buttery panko breadcrumbs add irresistible crunch. Fresh scallions and a simple vinaigrette tie it all together. Ready in minutes, memorable for hours—this is how you make salad the dinner star!
Wash and dry produce.
Trim and discard root end from lettuce; roughly chop. Dice tomato into ½-inch pieces. Trim and halve cucumber lengthwise; slice crosswise into ¼-inch-thick half-moons. Trim and thinly slice scallions. Dice turkey into 1-inch pieces.
Melt 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small pan over medium-high heat. Add panko, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until golden, 3-5 minutes. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate.
In a large bowl, whisk together dressing and a drizzle of olive oil.
Add lettuce, tomato, cucumber, scallions, turkey, and cheddar to bowl with dressing; toss until evenly combined. (TIP: Separate any pieces of turkey sticking together before tossing.) Taste and season with salt and pepper.
Divide salad between bowls and sprinkle with buttery breadcrumbs. Serve.
