Chicken, Red Potato, Green Bean salad

We had this hearty salad tonight... it was very good! I changed a few things based on ingredients I had and since our market has really good and inexpensive rotisserie chicken, I used that instead of boiled chicken.

Chicken, Red Potato, Green Bean Salad
Dressing:
3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 garlic clove, minced

  • Salad:
  • 1 pound small red potatoes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 pound frozen green beans
  • 1 1/2 cup rotisserie chicken, chopped
  • 1 shallot, chopped
  • 2 avocados, diced
  • 1 or 2 heads of lettuce, washed and chopped
Whisk together dressing and refrigerate. Place potatoes and salt in a pot, cover with water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 5-10 minutes or until just soft. Add green beans and simmer for another 4 minutes. Drain and rinse in cold water. Cut potatoes into fourths and toss all salad ingredients with salad dressing in a large bowl. Serve immediately.
