Iceberg Wedge With Chunky Gorgonzola Dressing - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Salad
    1/2 lb pancetta or 1/2 lb thick-cut bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
    1 large head iceberg lettuce, cut into 4-6 wedges, each with some core attached
    4 radishes, thinly sliced
    10 cherry tomatoes, halved
    Gorgonzola Dressing
    1 tablespoon dijon-style mustard
    3 tablespoons apple cider or 3 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
    1 tablespoon lemon juice
    salt and pepper
    1/3 cup olive oil
    1 cup crumbled gorgonzola
    1/3 cup sour cream
Preparation
    For the Salad: Cook pancetta in large skillet over medium heat until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain the extra fat and set aside.
    For the Gorgonzola Dressing: In a bowl, whisk together the mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Add 1/2 cup of Gorgonzola to the bowl and mash with a fork. Add the sour cream and whisk together. Serve or store in an airtight container, in the refrigerator, for up to 1 week.
    To assemble: Arrange iceberg wedges on plates. Spoon dressing over wedges and garnish with pancetta, radishes, cherry tomato halves, and remaining gorgonzola crumbles.
