Slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking, until the vinaigrette comes together and is well blended.

• Add the drained onion to a large bowl with the mixed greens, chicken, tomatoes and 2 tablespoons of the vinaigrette. Toss together and season with salt and pepper. Cut the avocado into small pieces. Top the salad with the avocado and a squeeze of lime and sprinkle with the tortilla chips.
