Ingredients
3/4 cup barbecue sauce
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 avocado, peeled, seed removed, and large diced
1 chipotle chili in adobo
2 chili lime tortillas
Spray olive oil
6 cups mesclun greens
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, grilled, julienned
Favorite salsa
Directions
- To make the dressing, in a blender, blend together the barbecue sauce, vinegar, olive oil, avocado and chipotle for 1 to 2 minutes or until creamy. Reserve dressing in refrigerator until ready to use.
- To make the tortillas, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Slice the tortillas into thin strips and spray them with the olive oil. Place the tortilla strips on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 4 to 5 minutes, or until crispy.
- To assemble the salad, in a mixing bowl, toss the greens with the dressing. Place a portion of the salad greens on each plate. Place 1 julienned chicken breast on top of each salad. Then spoon some of the salsa on top of salad. Finally, sprinkle each salad with the crispy tortillas.
