Santa Fe Chicken Salad

Pin It
I don't want to brag -well maybe a little, but this dish was awesome.  My taste tester, The Fisherman LOVED it!  I'm not sure what to call it - a main dish or an appetizer because it could be both.  For dinner, it could be served on lettuce or tortilla chips, like we did, and for an appetizer, served with tortilla scoops (I wouldn't prefill them as the chips would soften but serve in a bowl along side them).  The mayo mixture had fresh lime juice and chipolte adobo peppers - it has a little heat - you could adjust by more or less peppers but we like it spicy here.  Keep it easy too by using pre-cooked chicken (I use the frozen Target brand and just defrost).

My favorite part is the fresh veggies.... so colorful and good for you



Mix with the diced chicken, add the dressing and refrigerate for about 2-4 hours
