Ingredients

Salad dressing

  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons minced shallot
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 teaspon dried oregano
  • 2 teaspoons dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 1/2 cups olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Salad Ingredients

  • 1/2 head iceberg lettuce cleaned trimmed and chopped into 1/8 inch-wide strips
  • 1/2 head romaine lettuce cleaned trimmed and chopped into 1/8 inch-wide strips
  • 12 basil leaves chopped into 1/16-inch-wide strips
  • 2 cups dry Italian salami cut into thin strips
  • 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup chopped garbanzo beans
  • 4 cups ripe tomatoes diced 1/2 inch
  • 3 cups turkey breast diced 1/2 inch
  • 2 tablespoons chopped scallions cut into 1/4 inch pieces

Instructions

  • To make the dressing: Process all ingredients except oil and Parmesan using a hand-held, propeller-blade type mixer (or use a whisk in a small bowl). Slowly blend in oil. When all oil has been incorporated, stir in Parmesan. Set aside in the refrigerator. 
  • To make the salad: Toss first 6 ingredients and dressing together in a large mixing bowl. Transfer the salad to chilled salad plates. Surround each serving with a ring of diced tomatoes and top with diced turkey breast. Garnish with chopped scallions. Note: If so desired, all ingredients can be tossed together instead of being composed on the plate as described earlier.
