Deconstructed Club Sandwich Salad  | Serious Eats

This looks edible enough, especially without the bread. That said, a certain discounting of the adjective 'ingenious' is evident. The word implies intellectual achievement or at least amazing cleverness, e.g. Maxwell's unification of electricity and magnetism, sequencing the human genome...



Cook the Book: Deconstructed Club Sandwich Salad | Serious Eats : Recipes: "Patricia Wells, author of Salad as a Meal, is the ingenious innovator of this Deconstructed Club Sandwich Salad, equal parts sandwich and salad. Basically an open-faced club sandwich topped with a chopped salad, it's a meal that incorporates the best of both worlds.
Wells' recipe calls for chicken breasts poached and cooled in an aromatic stock, crisp slices of bacon, crusty sourdough, heirloom tomatoes and romaine, and a creamy-tangy lemon-chive dressing that you'll want to spread on pretty much everything. When it's time to plate, a slice of toasted sourdough is spread with the lemon-chive dressing, layered with chicken and bacon, and topped with a pile of chopped and dressed lettuce and tomatoes."

Just to make up for being made a second-order, but still undeserving target of scorn, here is the link to the associated recipe book (undoubtedly chock full of breakthrough insights - sorry, sorry).
