SOUTHWEST GRILLED CHICKEN SALAD RECIPE
Steps:
- In a food processor or blender add the onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, smoked paprika, lime juice, fresh cilantro, salt, and pepper. Pulse a few times to liquefy. Pound chicken breasts to an even thickness. Place the chicken in a large zip-top plastic bag, pour the marinade over the chicken and massage a few times to distribute the marinade evenly over the chicken. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours to overnight.
- Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and allow to sit at room temperature for 15-30 minutes before grilling. Preheat the grill to 400ºF.Grill the chicken without turning for 5-7 minutes per side (this will depend on the thickness of your chicken breasts), or until a thermometer reads 165ºF degrees in the thickest part. Remove from the grill and let rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.Grill the corn and jalapenos for 15-20 minutes, turning frequently, until lightly charred.
- Place the chopped lettuce on the bottom of a large platter or salad bowl. Top with the black beans, grilled corn, grilled jalapenos, tomatoes, avocado, cilantro, and sliced grilled chicken.
- Serve with our Fire Roasted Salsa or our Creamy Jalapeno Cilantro Dip.

SOUTHWESTERN CHICKEN SALAD
A wonderful blend of spices, herbs, and a bit of a "bite" from the jalapeno combine so well with the chicken and corn in this salad. One of my favorites! If you can't get fresh corn, you may substitute frozen corn.
