How to Make Nice Salads For A Bbq

Bbq Chicken Chopped Salad

Recipe Summary Bbq Chicken Chopped Salad

This healthy salad was adapted from one I ate at California Pizza Kitchen. The lime juice intensified by the jicama draws out the flavor of the vegetables, so an oil- or cream-based dressing is not necessary.

Ingredients | Nice Salads For A Bbq

1 head romaine lettuce, chopped

1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained

1 (15 ounce) can sweet corn, drained

1 red bell pepper, chopped

1 cup peeled, shredded jicama

1 cup shredded carrots

4 scallions, thinly sliced

¼ cup chopped fresh basil

¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

3 limes, divided

1 (6 ounce) package cooked chicken breast strips (such as Foster Farms®)

2 tablespoons barbeque sauce

1 avocado - peeled, pitted, and cubed

Directions

Mix lettuce, black beans, corn, red bell pepper, jicama, carrots, scallions, basil, and cilantro together in a large bowl. Juice 2 limes and drizzle juice over salad; toss lightly.

Combine chicken and barbeque sauce in a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave until chicken is warmed through, about 45 seconds.

Arrange chicken and avocado on top of the salad and squeeze remaining lime over salad.

I prefer the southwestern flavor for the chicken strips.

Drizzle extra BBQ sauce on top of salad if desired.
