Chipotle Chicken Salad

Adapted from Framed

This salad is AMAZING !!! The first time I made it I added what they said for the Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce and it was too hot, but it was still amazing. Next time I am just going to cut down the peppers and it will be perfect.

Despite it being freezing out here up in Maine this salad made me feel like it was August. It is hot, tangy, crunchy, healthy, and filling. Everything you would want in a dinner in the middle of the frigid numb winter.

You start with 2 limes, 1 can of chipotle chillies in adobo sauce, 1 red onion, 1 avocado, and 1 small pack of cheery tomatoes.


Begin by shredding 4 cups of romaine lettuce.


The dressing:
2/3 cup sour cream
4 tsp fresh lime juice
1/2 - 1 tbs of chipotle chillies minced
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp salt


Then boil 2 small chicken breasts


Once it is cooked shred it up with 2 forks.


Then add your cheery tomatoes, red onion, and 1 cup of thawed frozen corn


Then add your dressing and chicken to the salad mix and thoroughly incorporate all the ingredients, until all the individual pieces are lightly coated in the deliciously tangy dressing!!



Then plate it up and add some sliced avocado and some lime slices and enjoy a deliciously nutritious meal !!


Check that out! It is just screaming at you from the picture isn't it??


Enjoy !!!
