Recipe by Shawna This fried chicken and rice salad with bacon dressing is an old favorite of mine.

Ingredients

1/2 cup yellow cornmeal 1/3 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1/2 cup buttermilk 2/3 cup vegetable oil 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves 2 cups cooked white rice 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper 1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper 1/4 cup chopped red onion 1/2 head romaine lettuce - rinsed, dried and shredded 5 slices bacon 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon honey 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

In a large bowl, sift together the cornmeal, flour, salt, black pepper and red pepper. Pour buttermilk in a separate large bowl. Heat the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Dip the chicken in the buttermilk, then in cornmeal mixture. Coat lightly and cook in hot oil until crispy and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels; keep warm. Combine the rice, red bell peppers, green bell peppers, onion, and chicken in medium bowl. Place lettuce on bottom of 4 servings bowls or plates. Top with rice and chicken mixture. Prepare the dressing by placing the bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside. Sprinkle crumbled bacon over chicken mixture. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons drippings. Add 2 tablespoons water, cider vinegar, honey, mustard, salt and pepper; heat just to boiling and pour over salad.
