Seafood Layered Salad image

One of our favorite salads. When I serve it at parties I always get requests for the recipe. I usually make the dressing and chop the vegetables ahead of time and assemble right before dinner. Serve with French bread croutons.

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 bunch watercress, stemmed
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup chopped shallots
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley

2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, divided
½ cup diced avocado

  • Place 2 ring molds, 3 to 4 inches each, in the center of 2 salad plates. Arrange watercress around the molds.
  • Whisk Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, and salt together in a small bowl. Pour in olive oil slowly, whisking constantly, until dressing is thick and smooth. Stir in shallots, parsley, and thyme.

I found that the salad was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt in the dressing.
