Summer BBQ Chicken Salad
Filed under Salads by kristen at 1:14 pm on Aug 21 2008
On Friday, I mentioned that I went to Paradise Bakery for lunch when we were in Noblesville. I had an awesome salad: BBQ Chop Salad. I knew after eating it that I would want to recreate it. Today for lunch, I took a stab at my version. I have always wanted to photograph my recipes. I figured this was as good as time as ever.
Summer BBQ Chicken Salad
2 cups Romaine lettuce
2 ounces cooked chicken breast, shredded
2 tablespoons chopped red onion
2 tablespoons canned corn, drained
2 tablespoons black beans, drained & rinsed
2 tablespoons BBQ sauce of your choice
2 tablespoons Bolthouse Farms Ranch Dressing
In a small bowl with lid, combine Romaine lettuce & ranch dressing. Shake until lettuce is covered. Combine chicken & BBQ sauce. Mix well. Place lettuce on plate. Top with chopped red onion, corn, & black beans. Finish the salad with the BBQ chicken. Serve immediately. You can heat the BBQ chicken if you want. I have fixed the salad with cold BBQ chicken & warmed BBQ chicken. I like it both ways. Enjoy!
