This is Seriously the BEST Southwest Chicken Salad EVER!! I could not keep my spoon out of it! :-)
4 cups cooked chicken, cubed
1 can black beans, rinsed
2 cups frozen corn, thawed
1 cup roasted red sweet peppers, chopped
1 cup red onion, chopped
1 cup fresh cilantro, minced
Dressing:
3Tbsp lime juice
3Tbsp olive oil
4tsp honey
1 1/2tsp ground cumin
1tsp salt
1tsp chili powder
1/2tsp coarsely ground pepper
In a large bowl, combine the first 6 ingredients.
In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients; pour over chicken mixture and toss to coat.
Refrigerate until serving. Serve as desired as a salad,pita or wrap.
Yum Yum!
This one is definitely a keeper! Its a great Summer lunch! :-)
