    1 To make croutons, preheat oven to 180ºC. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

    2 In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, parsley and garlic. Add bread cubes and toss to coat well.

    3 Spread bread cubes in a single layer on prepared tray and bake 12-15 minutes until golden and crisp. Set aside.

    4 Meanwhile, in a small bowl whisk dressing ingredients to combine.

    5 In a pot of boiling water, cook asparagus and broccolini for 2-3 minutes until just tender. Remove, drain and rinse under cool water.

    6 In a large bowl place asparagus, broccolini, cos and chicken. Add ¼ of the dressing and toss to coat. Place on a large salad platter.

    7 Arrange avocado, egg quarters and prosciutto attractively over salad veg. Drizzle over remaining dressing and garnish with shaved parmesan and croutons.
