Spicy Chicken Taco Salad
Spicy Chicken Taco Salad Serves 4
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1/4 c. Southwest Seasoning (like my Southwest Seasoning found here)
1 head romaine lettuce, sliced and chopped 2 Tomatoes, chopped 1/2 medium onion, chopped 1 can corn, drained 1 c. cheddar cheese, shredded 4 T. sour cream 2 2-ounce bags of Doritos chips, crushed
Optional: Catalina or Russian salad dressing Salsa Chopped black olives Chopped avocado Black beans
Place chicken breasts in a small crock pot. Pour the Southwest Seasoning over the raw chicken and stir around to coat. Cook on high for 4 hours. Shred the chicken and turn off the crock pot. You can serve the salads with warm chicken or cold chicken...it's up to you!
To make the salads, assemble the ingredients in bowls or plates. Each bowl/plate will need 1/4 of the chopped lettuce, 1/2 of a chopped tomato, 1/8th of the chopped onion, 1/4 of the corn, 1/4 c. shredded cheddar, 1 T. sour cream and 1/2 of a bag of crushed Doritos. Spoon 1/4 of the shredded chicken onto the prepared salad. Top with salad dressing, salsa, avocado, black beans, olives if desired.
Review: This salad is very easy and yummy! You can mix up the ingredients according to your tastes. We enjoy using a little Catalina or Russian dressing to top the salad. Since the chicken is cooked in the crock pot, it doesn't heat up your kitchen on a hot day. This is also easy to prepare ahead of time for a quick meal. I find that using the small bags of Doritos helps with portion control. Enjoy~
