MEXICAN CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH/PITA



Mexican Chicken Salad Sandwich/Pita image

Trying to eat healthy? Throw together this quick and flavorful cold chicken salad-with a Mexican flavor! I served this warm flat bread, folded like a taco, but this would be delicious on bread in traditional sandwich form, or even on top of some dark leafy greens with a drizzle of salsa. Healthy eating everyone!

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 ounces canned chicken breasts (or 1 large cooked chicken breast)
3 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
1 avocado, diced
1/2 medium onion, diced
1 cup corn (frozen or canned)
1 large roma tomato, diced and seeded
4 leaves lettuce, sliced into shreds
3 tablespoons salsa
1/2 lime
salt and pepper
2 teaspoons taco seasoning
1/2 jalapeno, seeded and diced fine
4 flat bread (or 8 bread slices)

Steps:

  • Run your knife through the chicken breast to break up the larger chunks. Place this mixture in a large bowl.
  • Add cheese, onion, corn (thawed, but not heated), tomato, salsa and jalapeño.
  • Drizzle avocado with juice of 1/2 lime, then add avocado to the bowl.
  • Add 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper and 2 tsp taco seasoning to the bowl, then toss to mix well.
  • Assemble your meal by warming a piece of flat bread, then adding a layer of lettuce shreds before topping with 1/4 mixture. Fold and enjoy taco-style.
  • **These are pretty large, filling serving sizes. If I was serving this with other dishes, I would probably estimate this would serving 5 or 6, depending on how hungry you are.
