Avocado And Grilled Chicken Chopped Salad With Skinny Chipotle Lime Ranch Recipes

GRILLED CHICKEN AND AVOCADO SALAD

Steps:

• Oil a grill pan and place over high heat until hot. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Working in batches so as not to crowd the pan, place chicken skin-side down on grill pan. Cook 4 minutes. Turn, and cook until just cooked through, about 2 minutes more. As each batch is finished, set aside on a platter. Oil grill pan as necessary. When chicken is cool enough to handle, cut into medium dice, and transfer to a large bowl.
• Add chickpeas, peppers, onion, and vinaigrette. Toss to combine. Gently fold in avocado. Serve garnished with lime wedges and cilantro.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk lime juice, maple syrup, chipotle pepper and, if desired, cayenne until blended. In another bowl, combine avocados, cucumber and chives. Drizzle with dressing; toss gently to coat. Serve over tomatoes.
