BBQ Chicken Salad

BBQ Chicken Salad

2 large chicken breasts, cooked and shredded

1 cup BBQ sauce

1/2 head Romaine lettuce, chopped

1/2 head Iceberg lettuce, chopped

1 can corn, drained

1 can black beans, drained and rinsed

1 bunch green onions, chopped

1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped (optional)

4 Roma tomatoes, diced (optional)

2 Haas avocados, diced (optional)

shredded cheese, Mexican blend or cheddar

crispy tortilla strips (or chips)

1. Stir shredded chicken in with the BBQ sauce until well coated. I usually do this over heat so that flavor gets cooked into the meat.  Or cook the chicken with the BBQ sauce in a crock pot all day and then shred.

2. Toss together the lettuce, cilantro, corn, beans, and chopped veggies. 

3. Top with shredded chicken, cheese and crispy tortilla strips. 

4. If desired, drizzle ranch or cilantro lime dressing over salad and enjoy!
