Danielle's Notes:
This is a great summer salad. I love the combination of gorgonzola cheese and peaches and put it on everything in the summer! The wasabi peas bring a nice zing; this was completely discovered by accident when I tipped a bowl of them into the salad. I decided to serve it that way and, SUCCESS!
 
 

Directions

1
Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
2
Apply salt and pepper to the chicken breasts; chop them into small strips and put into hot skillet. Coook about 10-15 minutes (golden brown in color).
3
Dice boston lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Add peaches and wasabi peas and toss.
4
Crumble gorgonzola cheese and mix throughout the salad.
5
Add chicken breast strips, still warm. Top with red wine vinagrette dressing.
