Yield: 4 to 5 servings
Ingredients: 8 slices bacon; 1 head iceberg lettuce, cut into 6 wedges; Chunky Feta Cream Sauce, recipe follows; 2 medium tomatoes, diced; Pickled Red Onions, recipe follows; Coarsely ground black pepper; 2 ounces feta, crumbled; 1/2 cup whole-milk Greek yogurt; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 1/2 teaspoon paprika; Coarsely ground black pepper; 1 cup warm water; 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar; 4 1/2 teaspoons sugar; 1 teaspoon kosher salt; 1 large red onion, thinly sliced; Tabasco sauce

Directions

Add the bacon to a large saute pan, turn the heat to medium and cook, flipping after 5 minutes, until the bacon is crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. When cool enough to handle, chop into small pieces.
Arrange the lettuce wedges on a platter. Top with the Chunky Feta Cream Sauce, bacon, tomatoes and Pickled Red Onions. Season with coarsely ground black pepper.

Chunky Feta Cream Sauce:

In a high-speed blender, combine the feta, yogurt, olive oil, paprika and a few turns of pepper and blend until very smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning if desired. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use (this can be made a day or two in advance).

Pickled Red Onions:

Whisk together the water, vinegar, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add the onion, cover and let sit at room temperature for an hour or in the refrigerator overnight. Add tabasco sauce to taste.
