La Scala–Style Chopped Salad
This spoonable salad guarantees layers of flavor in every bite. Chopped salads are packed with complementary ingredients for a balanced dish. Restaurateur Jean Leon’s chopped salad from Beverly Hills’ La Scala is memorable for its simplicity in ingredients with complex flavors. Our version, inspired by La Scala’s, featured marinated chickpeas, salami, and mozzarella cheese. Romaine lettuce provided a mild base with a pleasant crunch and sweet flavor. The dressing was bold—equal parts oil and acid, with Parmesan, garlic, and Dijon to bring it all together.
