To prepare a delicious and filling salad, start by cutting cherry tomatoes into quarters and adding them to a large bowl. These sweet and juicy tomatoes will provide a fresh note to the dish. Tear the lettuce leaves into large pieces and add them alongside the tomatoes. The frilly lettuce will add a crunchy texture and vibrant appearance. Grate fresh parmesan to add to the bowl; its intense flavor will harmonize perfectly with the other ingredients. Slice the red onion into thin rings and add it on top of the parmesan for a contrast of colors and flavors. Next, it's time to roast the tomatoes and garlic. You can do this on a stovetop or in the oven until the tomatoes become soft and slightly caramelized. Once roasted, remove the skins from the tomatoes and place them in a blender. Crush the garlic in a mortar, gradually adding salt and olive oil (about 25 ml). Mix well in the mortar until you achieve a smooth emulsion. Then, gradually add the blended tomatoes, stirring continuously until the dressing becomes creamy and flavorful. Cut the chicken into cubes or thin strips, depending on your preference. Brush the chicken with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, preparing it on the grill. Alternatively, if you prefer, you can fry it in a pan, ensuring it becomes nicely browned. Once the chicken is cooked and has cooled slightly, add it over the remaining ingredients in the bowl. This will add a boost of protein and turn the salad into a complete meal. Add the dressing over the ingredients in the bowl, followed by a teaspoon of sugar, which will balance the acidity of the tomatoes. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of flavors. Toast some slices of bread, cut them into sticks, and serve them alongside the salad. These will provide a pleasant contrast of textures. Season with salt if necessary, and enjoy this refreshing and flavorful dish. Bon appétit!
