Instructions

To make the dressing:

  • In a food processor or blender, add garlic and pulse until finely chopped. Add anchovies, parsley, chives, tarragon, and chervil. Pulse until finely chopped.
  • Add mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper and refrigerate until serving time.

To make the salad:

  • On a large platter or in a shallow bowl, make a bed of lettuce. Working with one ingredient at a time, arrange in rows the chicken, blue cheese, egg, tomatoes, bacon, and avocado. Sprinkle with chives and serve with Green Goddess Dressing.

Notes

If you can't find fresh tarragon and/or chervil, you can use more parsley or substitute basil or any other leafy herb you like (I love dill in this dressing too).
