Instructions
To cook the bacon: place on a microwave-safe plate two sheets of paper towels. Lay on top of paper towels, 6 slices of bacon in a single layer. Lay another 2 sheets of paper towels on top of bacon. Cook in microwave until crisp (~4 to 5 minutes). Blot cooked pieces and set aside. Repeat steps with remaining 6 pieces, using more paper towels.
In a large bowl, add lettuce, tomatoes, chicken, and crackers. Crumble all the bacon into the bowl. Add dressing, vinegar and toss well. Add more dressing, if desired.
Divide salad among 4 dinner plates. Sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon cheese.
