1 1/2 cup (about 6 oz) cooked chicken breast strips, cut into 1-2 inch pieces
1/2 cup fiery hot walnuts (see separate recipe) in halves or large pieces
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/3 cup chopped fiery hot walnuts (see separate recipe)
6-7 cup (1/2 head) iceberg lettuce, shredded or 1 bag romaine mix (about 10-12 oz)
3 ribs celery, sliced in 1/2 inch pieces
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
1/2 cup blue cheese dressing
1 teaspoon tabasco red pepper sauce

Directions

In a small bowl combine the chicken with the Tabasco and paprika and toss to coat the chicken evenly with the seasonings. Set aside.
In a large bowl toss the lettuce with the celery. Add the dressing and crumbled blue cheese and continue to toss the salad until the lettuce is coated with dressing. Add the chopped walnuts and toss just to combine. If you wish, transfer the salad to a large platter for serving. Arrange the spicy chicken strips and the large walnut pieces on top of the salad.
