Number Of Ingredients 12

8 slices bacon, chopped
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons buttermilk
3 tablespoons chopped scallions
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken (skin removed)
1 16-ounce container Campari or other small vine-ripened tomatoes, quartered
1 avocado, diced

Steps:

  • Cook the bacon in a medium skillet over medium heat, stirring, until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon.
