Southwest Chicken Chopped Salad

Step 1

Start by making the Taco-Ranch dressing. In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the dressing ingredients to thoroughly combine. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour to chill.

Step 2

In a large bowl, add the diced bell pepper, black beans, corn, tomatoes, green onion and cilantro. Stir to combine. Then add the cooked chicken pieces and the chopped romaine lettuce. Pour the prepared salad dressing all over the top. (You may not need all of the dressing. It depends on how much dressing you like.)

Step 3

Gently stir to combine the salad, making sure to coat entirely with the dressing. Mix in the crushed tortilla chips last. Serve the salad in individual bowls, topping with more cilantro and limes to garnish, if desired. Enjoy!
