Sunset salad originated at the '21' Club early in the restaurant's history. The name comes from the colors of its ingredients. The salad is most often served with Lorenzo dressing, which was invented by one of the waiters, whose first name, not surprisingly, was Lorenzo. Ingredients:
2 cups finely shredded green cabbage (from about 1/2 medium head) |
2 cups finely shredded iceberg lettuce (from about 1/2 head) |

2 cups 1/2-inch cubes poached chicken breast (about 1 pound) |
3/4 cup lorenzo dressing |
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard dissolved in 1 tablespoon water |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1/3 cup olive oil |
2 tablespoons bottled chili sauce |
2 tablespoons finely chopped watercress leaves |
2 tablespoons chopped cooked bacon (about 3 slices) |
