Easy BBQ Chicken Salad

Photo from allrecipes.com

Try this! It's really easy and really good. The girls even loved it. I'm all about super easy recipes. I don't have a grill, so I cooked the chicken on the stove with lots of spices (garlic powder, onion powder, etc.)


Amy's Barbecue Chicken Salad

Ingredients
  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 head red leaf lettuce, rinsed and torn
  • 1 head green leaf lettuce, rinsed and torn  (I just used one kind of lettuce)
  • 1 fresh tomato, chopped
  • 1 bunch cilantro, chopped
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained (I used frozen corn)
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained
  • 1 (2.8 ounce) can French fried onions
  • 1/2 cup Ranch dressing
  • 1/2 cup barbeque sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat the grill for high heat.               
  2. Lightly oil the grill grate. Place chicken on the grill, and cook 6 minutes per side, or until juices run clear. Remove from heat, cool, and slice.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the red leaf lettuce, green leaf lettuce, tomato, cilantro, corn, and black beans. Top with the grilled chicken slices and French fried onions.
  4. In a small bowl, mix the Ranch dressing and barbeque sauce. Serve on the side as a dipping sauce, or toss with the salad to coat.
